English Summary
In 2006 Carlsberg decided to move the production of beer from Copenhagen to Fredericia 200 km west of the capital. More than 160 years of brewing had come to an end, and the door opened for a totally new usage of the site that lies in the heart of Copenhagen and spans an area of more than 300,000 square meters (75 acres). The site's history and location presents a clear opportunity to create a new city quarter which will arouse international attention and attract visitors from all over the world.

- at Carl Jacobsen tillagde sig lidt excentriske vaner på sine ældre dage. Hver morgen leverede hans gartner en mørkerød rose, som bryggeren bar hele dagen for det meste med stilken i munden. Sådan, mente han, blev duften mere intens.
- at den store danske eventyrdigter, H. C. Andersen flere gange besøgte Carlsberg. Således noterede digteren i sin dagbog: "Kjørte i Sporvogn til Pile-Aleen og gik da i Dynd og Søle neden om Søndermarken, til Carlsberg hvor jeg var indbudt af Eieren Brygger Jakopsen."
