Copenhagen's "Striking Bag" | Frederik's Church
Frederik's Church (Frederik’s church), also known as the Marble Church, was built to commemorate the 300th anniversary of the House of Oldenburg ascending to the Danish throne.
In Copenhagen and indeed the whole of Scandinavia, it is an absolutely dazzling presence, as it boasts a large dome with a diameter of 31 meters, making it the largest Baroque-style domed church in Scandinavia.
When I passed through a block of neat and square buildings and came to Amalienborg Palace ready to visit, I didn't expect to be drawn to the green dome opposite the palace, and I walked straight over.
Above the main entrance of the church, the pediment is inscribed with gold letters: 'But the word of the Lord endures forever.' The church is surrounded by statues of many Danish celebrities and church figures, both solemn and exquisite.
The interior of the church is majestic, with delicate and luxurious decorations. It is divided into two levels, with the second level being a surrounding gallery that overlooks the entirety of the first floor. Compared to the beautiful carvings around the dome and walls, the altar's decoration is not so magnificent and complex.
What is particularly striking are the two large pipe organs on either side, from different periods, facing each other across the space, shining brightly, playing music every fifteen minutes, immersing visitors in melodious tunes.
Additionally, the interior color scheme of the church is quite unique, featuring a fashionable deep blue paired with dark gold.
In fact, this church also has a history of being an unfinished building for 150 years: it was built in 1779, but construction was interrupted midway due to a lack of funds. The Danish Minister of Finance had to sell it to the then-wealthy Carl Frederik Tietgen, not really selling the church to him, but letting him continue the construction. It was not until 1894 that the church was finally completed and opened. Originally planned to be entirely made of marble, it had to be changed to the cheaper limestone after the second start of construction.
