Contract on the Delivery of Float Glass

Kort beskrivelse

The Danmarks Nationalbank building in Havnegade, Copenhagen, was designed by the Danish architect Arne Jacobsen and constructed in the period 1965-78. In 2009 the Heritage Agency of Denmark (now the Danish Agency for Culture) decided to list the building because of its architectural and cultural historical values. The building in Havnegade is due for a major and necessary renovation. It is a large-scale renovation, which is deemed necessary by experts and which must consider the fact that the building is listed. The renovation will respect these values.
