Kultorvet

This point of interest is available as audio on the tour: Visit Copenhagen, A Scandinavian jewel
This is also a very nice square! It goes under the name of Kultovert, or the Coal Market, given its past business here. Built after the 1728 fire, its surrounding buildings were rebuilt over time…except for the one in front of you. Commonly known as n°14, it stands here since the 1730s, whereas the others have all been built or redone throughout the 19th century. In the middle of the square, you’ll find an ancient fountain and a small kiosk with an iconic clock on top. Near n°16, in front of you, stands a bronze sculpture representing an old couple sitting on a bench. Take your time strolling around! Or if you feel like it, have a coffee and try out some local specialties!
