Copenhagen - Hirschsprung Collection

(Local Name: Den Hirschsprungske Samling) Going west from Kastellet, the former citadel of Frederikshavn in Copenhagen, and passing Østerport Station the visitor will come to Østre Anlæg Park. On its north side, at Stockholmsgade 20, is the Hirschsprung Collection (Hirschsprungske Samling), an art collection bequeathed to the city by Heinrich Hirschsprung. Its principal items are Danish painting and sculpture of the 19th century, including some by the "Skagenmaler", who represented the modern "breakthrough" (1880). The collection has now grown to 600 paintings, 200 sculptures and over 1,000 watercolors.
