More information on Kongens Nytorvs Skøjtebane
If Rådhuspladsen is Copenhagen's most popular square, then Kongens Nytorv is the city's most distinguished and exclusive one. That is the impression a visitor will receive especially at night, when celebrities and other people in gala dress flock to the Royal Danish Theatre to see a ballet, opera or play. Limousines glide up in front of Hotel D'Angleterre to drop off their guests. Kongens Nytorv was constructed in 1670 on the side of the former ramparts of the city. Many beautiful buildings are situated around Kongens Nytorv, for instance Charlottenborg, built for Frederik III's half brother in Dutch Baroque style. Charlottenborg is the former location of the Architectural School and now contains the Art School, Charlottenborg Udstillingshal and Café Charlottenborg. Other buildings are the Thotske Palace (now the French Embassy), and the department store Magasin du Nord, the most beautiful department store in Scandinavia. At the middle of Kongens Nytorv you find a garden called Krinsen. Every summer, the year's graduates dance around Krinsen, hand in hand. At Christmas, the square and its many buildings are decorated with lights that make everything look like a fairy-tale. The statue at the middle of the square represents Christian V, made by Frenchman Abraham-Cesar Lamoroux in 1687.
