Nørrebro
Appearance
Nørrebro is the common name for an area in Copenhagen, Denmark located beyond the historic city center (the Indre By), and beyond the location of the old Northern Gate (Nørreport), which was near the current Nørreport Train Station until dismantled in 1856.
The Nørrebro area consists of two of the 15 administrative, statistical, and tax city districts (bydele) comprising the municipality of Copenhagen:
- Indre Nørrebro (lit. English, "Inner Nørrebro")
- Ydre Nørrebro (lit. English, "Outer Nørrebro")
The dynamic, multi-ethnic main street "Nørrebrogade" runs through the area, with a multitude of shops and restaurants. One of the main points of interest in the area is historic Assistens Cemetery (Assistens Kirkegård).
