  • THE BICYCLE RING in AARHUS, DENMARK: a Case Study of Maintaining People Friendly Environments While Managing Cycling Growth
    THE BICYCLE RING IN AARHUS, DENMARK: a case study of maintaining people friendly environments while managing cycling growth Urban Planning & Management | Master Thesis | Aalborg University | June 2017 Estella Johanna Hollander & Matilda Kristina Porsö Title: The Bicycle Ring in Aarhus, Denmark: a case study of maintaining people friendly environments while managing cycling growth Study: M.Sc. in UrBan Planning and Management, School of Architecture, Design and Planning, AalBorg University Project period: FeBruary to June 2017 Authors: Estella Johanna Hollander and Matilda Kristina Porsö Supervisor: Gunvor RiBer Larsen Pages: 111 pages Appendices: 29 pages (A-E) i Abstract This research project seeks to analyze the relationship Between cycling and people friendly environments, specifically focusing on the growth in cycling numbers and the associated challenges. To exemplify this relationship, this research project uses a case study of the Bicycle Ring (Cykelringen) in Aarhus, Denmark. Four corners around the Bicycle Ring, with different characteristics in the Built environment, are explored further. In cities with a growing population, such as Aarhus, moBility is an important focus because the amount of travel will increase, putting a higher pressure on the existing infrastructure. In Aarhus, cycling is used as a tool to facilitate the future demand of travel and to overcome the negative externalities associated with car travel. The outcome of improved mobility and accessibility is seen as complementary to a good city life in puBlic spaces. Therefore, it is argued that cycling is a tool to facilitate people friendly environments. Recently, the City of Aarhus has implemented cycle streets around the Bicycle Ring as a solution to improve the conditions around the ring.

  • Borgmestergården – 100 År I Den Gamle By
    Borgmestergården – 100 år i Den Gamle By Af Niels Meyer og Mathilde Schødt Veland I 100-året for Borgmestergårdens åbning i Den Gamle By kaster nye bygningsarkæologiske undersøgelser lys over gårdens histo- rie, hvor dele af bindingsværket kan dateres til middelalderen. Hovedresultaterne sammenfattes her af bygningsarkæolog, cand. mag. Mathilde Schødt Veland, som står bag undersøgelsen, samt bygingschef, arkitekt maa. Niels Meyer. Borgmestergården kender de fleste som en af de store køb- mandsgårde i Den Gamle By, men bygningen er meget mere end det – det er selve begyndelsen på Den Gamle By. Peter Holm havde stor succes med “Den Gamle Borg- mestergaard” på Landsudstillingen i 1909, og det gav ham rygstød til i 1914 at flytte hele huset en gang mere, til hvor det står i dag, og hvor det nu i 100 år har formidlet dansk boligkultur fra renæssancen til midten af 1800-tallet. Men det at flytte huse og rekonstruere historiske helheder var ab- solut ikke anerkendt i datidens museumskredse. Både Natio- nalmuseets direktør, Sophus Müller og formanden for Aarhus Museum, Konsul Frederik Ollendorff var imod projektet. Borgmestergården er bygget om Ollendorff udtalte faktisk, at det eneste bevaringsværdige flere gange.

Sophus som den var i renæssancen. Müller kaldte svalegangen en imitation, fordi brædderne, han stod på, ikke var fra 1597. Heldigvis var der andre, der så potentialet og gav støtte til Holms projekt. Derved lykkedes det at bevare et enestå- ende eksemplar af renæssancens store bygårde fra Aarhus.

  • “The Sons of Denmark Who After Emigrating Brought Honour to Their Homeland”
    “The sons of Denmark who after emigrating brought honour to their homeland” 29.11.17 A monument to Danes who lost their lives fighting in the First World War is beautifully situated in Århus, Denmark’s second largest city. The names of the men are listed in (almost) alphabetical order, both those who fought for Germany and those who fought for the Allies. The dates and places of birth and death are recorded but neither rank nor regiment: they are equal in having been killed in the line of duty. The majority, 4000, were “Danish-minded” from the Schleswig region who had been conscripted into the German forces while 140 were Danes who had either voluntarily gone abroad for the purpose of joining up or as immigrants, fought for the Allied forces. While there was some controversy over whether specific Schleswigers were sufficiently “Danish-minded” to warrant the honour of being named on the monument, some of the Danes who had emigrated and were killed while serving for the Allies apparently didn’t have, for whatever reason, families to put their names forward. The following 4 all gave their lives for the Allies and also all had a connection with Næstved, a small town on southern Zealand, Denmark. The Andersen/Anderson brothers The brothers Andersen from Stenstrup and Næstved, are named on the monument. They came from a working class family. Their father had originally worked on a farm before the family had moved into the local town. His beautiful young wife, on the photo with her 4 children, died aged 23.
