(Romina) #1

  1. The Kierkegaard family home at 2 Nytorv was four stories high, with a high-ceilinged cellar. While
    he was a university student, and again when he returned to the family home in the years 1841–48,
    Kierkegaard occupied the apartment on the second floor, next to the entrance to the city hall–courthouse
    building. The place was torn down in 1908 to make room for the gigantic Handelsbank building at
    the corner of Nytorv and Frederiksberggade, adjacent to what is now known as Strøget, Copenhagen’s
    famous pedestrian street.
