Ålborg - Vesterbro

Vesterbro, running north to south, forms the western boundary of the Old Town of Ålborg. In this street can be seen two notable sculptures: at the end of Bispegade is the "Cimbrian Bull" (Cimbrertyren, 1937) by A. J. Bundgård with a poem by the Nobel Prizewinner Johannes V. Jensen (1873-1950) on the plinth. Further south is the statue of the "Goose Girl" (Gåsepigen) by Gerhard Henning (1937). On Vesterbro, too, stands St Ansgar's Church. Opposite lies Kilde Park, Ålborg's oldest park (1802), with a number of sculptures including "The Three Graces" by Thorvaldsen and "Child of Bacchus" by Anne Marie Carl Nielsen. Also to be found here are the Ålborg Halls.
