Copenhagen: Vore Faldne

Copenhagen: Vore Faldne.

“Vore faldne (English: Our fallen) is a six-metre bronze monument, by Sven Linhart; which was paid for by nationwide public subscription and erected in memory of those Danes who gave their lives as volunteers in the service of the Allies of World War II. The monument depicts an ordinary soldier, in British Army battle dress and the characteristic British Tommy helmet … with his head bowed, in silent remembrance of his fallen comrades, as his faces the nearby St. Alban’s English church. Location: In Copenhagen’s Churchill Park, just outside the Citadel’s [Kastellet} Royal Gate.”
