Church |
Christian's Church is a
magnificent Rococo church in the Christianshavn. Designed by
Nicolai Eigtved, it was built 1754–59. The church was
originally built by the German community as a church for the
large German community at Christianshavn and served this purpose
until the end of the 19th century. Today it is a regular parish
church for Christian's Parish within the Danish National Church.
Its name is a reference to King Christian IV. who founded the
Christianshavn district in 1611.
