Pre investigation trenches. 3 1 Results On the occasion of establishing a work area for the Metro Cityring subway project, the Museum of Copenhagen has conducted an archaeological pre investigation in the northern part of Nørrebroparken, Copenhagen (cover ill., table 1). Up to the mid 19th century the excavation site was a peripheral part the medieval village Serridslev, formerly located c. 0.9 km to the north-west (cover ill.). In 1863 a railway, Nordbanen, was built between Copenhagen and Klampenborg, and a station building, Nørrebro Station, was constructed on the site. Nordbanen was in use up to 1930, and after that the park, Nørrebroparken, was established. No archaeological observations have earlier been made in the area. In the areas available for investigation, nine trenches were excavated down to natural ground (fig. 1). The trenches had a total length of 165 m, and they were c. 1.8 m wide and c. 1 m deep. The fill in the trenches consisted of modern top soil and leveling layers. Nothing of archaeological interest was recorded. 1.1 Technical and administrative data Kulturstyrelsen j. nr. 2010-7.24.02/KBM-0015 KBM ID and internal case ID KBM 3845, case ID 1978 County Copenhagen District Sokkelund City Copenhagen Area Udenbys Klædebo kvarter Parish Sankt Stefan Duration of field work phase 06-07-2011 Stine Wozniak (field leader), Jacob Museum archaeologists Mosekilde, Karen Green Therkelsen Area (m2) 306 m2 (of c. 3 200 m2) Volume (m3) 300 m3 (of c. 32 000 m3) Coordinate system DKTM 3 Height system DVR 90 X-coordinates 1174864–1174998 Y-coordinates 649754–649835 Metroselskabet I/S (Metro Developer Company) Table 1.
