Cities of War: København

In the Footsteps of the Officer and the Henchman

In the Footsteps of the Officer and the Henchman: København 1940–1945

Experience Copenhagen in the climate of terror during the Occupation, when the strategist and the executioner worked together on systematic violence. The walk follows the trail from the cynical decision-makers in the luxury hotels to the clearing murders and Schalburgtage at street level.

The route takes you past key locations such as:

  • Studenterforeningen & Ø.K.: Symbolic targets of German sabotage.
  • d’Angleterre: Power base for the deportation of the Danish Jews.
  • Nyboder Skole & Hotel Phoenix: Military headquarters and Gestapo centres.
  • Fædrelandet & Domus Medica: Propaganda and terror against the medical profession.
  • Kastellet: The site of the final reckoning after the liberation.

An intense walk through a capital under pressure, where the line between administration and brutality was blurred, and the question of responsibility still casts long shadows.
