Denmark's King Frederik recently laid a foundation stone to mark the beginning of the reconstruction of Copenhagen's historic Old Stock Exchange. The 400-year-old landmark suffered significant damage in a fire that occurred in April, causing the collapse of its green copper roof and iconic dragon-tail spire.
The Old Stock Exchange, known as Boersen in Danish, is considered a prime example of Dutch Renaissance architecture in Denmark. Originally opened in 1624 as a trading hub, the building has a rich history and cultural significance.
