In Statue of Johan Peter Emilius Hartmann, how is the History discussed?
Hartmann was born in a now demolished house at the corner of Bredgade and Sankt Annæ Plads. He began his career as an organist in the Garrison Church and lived for most of his life around the corner in the Zinn House at Kvæsthusgade. He died in 1900 and is buried at the Garrison Church.
A committee for the creation of a Harmann monument was established shortly after his death. August Saabye and Vilhelm Petersen was charged with designing the statue and the bronze sculpture was cast in Lauritz Tasmussen's Bronze Foundry in Nørrebro. The monument was unveiled in 1905.
