neighbouring Købmagergade, once lined<br />

with butcher shops, is now a pedestrianised<br />

high street. The m<strong>eat</strong>y legacy continues at<br />

the nørreport end, where two butcher shops<br />

still ply their trade. on your way, stop in at the<br />

impressive Round Tower (see page 28),<br />

originally built as an observatory. peter the<br />

gr<strong>eat</strong> once rode a horse up the winding<br />

corridor to the top – but you‘ll have to walk!<br />

Weary shoppers can opt for the elevator at<br />

the nearby Post & Tele Museum (see page<br />

107), whose restaurant has a terrace with<br />

splendid cityscape views.<br />

soaking up The sTudenT vibe<br />

The Latin Quarter takes in the area around<br />

the old university and cathedral. Drop into<br />

paludan’s bookshop on Fiolstræde for the<br />

studenty atmosphere and a frothy latte,<br />

then turn on Frue plads to visit the Church<br />

of Our Lady and native son Thorvaldsen’s<br />

statues of a very nordic-looking Jesus and his<br />

12 disciples. The neoclassical church was<br />

erected on the ruins of the gothic cathedral<br />

destroyed by the British during the Battle of<br />

<strong>Copenhagen</strong> in 1807. Don’t miss the<br />

splendidly boxy Gråbrødretorv – named<br />

after the black friar’s abbey that once stood<br />

there. Today, the square is ringed with lively<br />

restaurants offering outdoor s<strong>eat</strong>ing nearly<br />

year-round. Feeling funky? head down Skt<br />

Pederstræde and Larsbjørnsstræde for a<br />

grungy mosaic of music stores, organic<br />

<strong>eat</strong>eries and edgy boutiques.<br />
