Carlsberg City is the very place where the beer that made Denmark famous was born. The place where a dramatic family saga and a history of entrepreneurship, pioneering risks and an unstoppable faith in the future came together.
On the tour, I will tell you how Carlsberg was created, because of what quarrel the founder of the brand Jacob Jacobsen stopped communicating with his son and even divided the business. You will learn the story of the famous elephants at the entrance to Carlsberg City, you will understand why one of the brand's symbols is a swastika, and also you'll see what is happening to the famous buildings today, when most of the production has moved to Jutland.
There are also many interesting things waiting for you in the second part of the tour. I will tell you why urbanists studied the psychology of city dwellers' behavior during the renovation of the area, how much local housing costs, where the SPA center is located, where you can treat yourself to a beer bath.
We begin our walk at the location of the oldest buildings in the district, those that were built by the brewery founder J.C. Jacobsen in the mid-19th century. These are the original production facilities of the brewery.
We will pass by the Carlsberg's Stables, The Carlsberg research laboratory and the New Carlsberg Headquaters
During his numerous travels, the founder of Carlsberg Jacob Jacobsen not only brought back brewing yeast but also rare species of trees and other plants. We will visit his beautiful garden. We will also see his Villa where a lot of famous people lived.
You will make your own way to the meeting points
