Old Aker Church
Old Aker Church was built as a three-naved Romanesque style basilica and constructed from limestone. It is believed to have been erected by King Olav Kyrre in 1080 as a church for all of Vingulmark, the historic area surrounding Oslo. The grounds of Old Aker Church were originally likely the former site of the regional thing during the pre-Christian period.
Blegdamsvej
The north side of the street is dominated by the Panum Building and Rigshospitalet, located on either side of Tagensvej. The oldest building on the north side of the street is St. John's Church. Completed in 1861, it was the first church to be built in the new districts which developed after Copenhagen's Bastioned Fortifications were decommissioned. The Niels Bohr Institute from 1922 has housed the work of several Nobel Prize-winners. No. 23, roughly from the same time, is the Freemasons' Hall. The Danish branch of the Red Cross has its head office at No. 25–27. The building was built in 1952 as headquarters of Copenhagen County. Blegdamsvej Prison (No. 6) is the oldest prison still in use in Denmark. It was designed by Michael Gottlieb Bindesbøll and inaugurated in 1848 but has later been expanded and modernized several times. No. 60 is a former machine factory, Nielsen & Winther. The building was designed by Axel Berg and opened in 1899. Its neighbor (No. 62), slightly older and designed by Ludvig Fenger, was originally a public school but later taken over by Nielsen & Winther. No. 104 is a former candle manufactury, Asp-Holmblad, which was in use until the 1940s but has now been converted into apartments. No. 124 was designed by Frederik Lauritz Levy for the company Siemens-Schuckert.
