Historical Sites of Physical Science in Copenhagen

Abstract

Each section below describes a particular place in the Danish capital. A map of Copenhagen can be found at the web site <www.nbi.dk/how-to-get-here.html>. The map is divided into four sections, I-IV, each of which consists of particular horizontal coordinates A..., and particular vertical coordinates 1..., as follows: I (A–C, 1–4); II (D–F, 1–4); III (A–C, 5–8); and IV (D–F, 5–8). The coordinates of the sites described in the sections below are given in parentheses at the end of each section heading. A map with a street index can be obtained free of charge at the main railway station, the airport information desk, and tourist offices. The web site <www.aok.dk> provides useful general information about Copenhagen.
