Dalgas Boulevard


Dalgas Boulevard is a broad avenue in the Frederiksberg district of Copenhagen, Denmark. It runs from Roskildevej in the south to Femte Juni Plads in the north, intersecting Peter Bangs Vej and Finsensvej on the way.

History

The road was planned and it was already at this point decided to name it after the officer and road engineer Enrico Dalgas. Construction did not start until 1911.

Notable buildings and structures

Dalgas Have is one of several campuses of Copenhagen Business School in Frederiksberg. It is from 1889 and was designed by Henning Larsen Architects.
Much of the southern part of the street is lined by single family detached homes. No. 45 was designed by Kaj Gottlob.
