Top: St. Alban’s Church and Gefion Fountain.

“St. Alban’s Church, locally often referred to simply as the English Church, is an Anglican church in Copenhagen. It was built from 1885 to 1887 for the growing English congregation in the city. Designed by Arthur Blomfield as a traditional English parish church in the Gothic Revival style, it is in a peaceful park setting at the end of Amaliegade in the northern part of the city centre, next to the citadel Kastellet and the Gefion Fountain and Langelinie.

“The Gefion Fountain features a large-scale group of animal figures being driven by the Norse goddess Gefjun. It is located in Nordre Toldbod area next to Kastellet and immediately south of Langelinie. It is the largest monument in Copenhagen and used as a wishing well. It was designed by Danish artist Anders Bundgaard, who sculpted the naturalistic figures 1897-99. The basins and decorations were completed in 1908. The fountain was first activated on 14 July 1908.”
