Focusing on Copenhagen's transformation during its 'Golden Age,' this book explores the city's evolution into a modern urban center around 1800-1850. It highlights the architectural contributions of C.F. Hansen and the impending modernization efforts like street lighting and sewer systems. Additionally, it delves into the perspectives of notable citizens—philosopher Soren Kierkegaard, novelist Thomasine Gyllembourg, and criminal Ole Kollerod—who reflect on the city's institutional framework and daily life, providing a rich cultural context to this pivotal era.
