- On Tuesday, a fire ripped through Copenhagen's Old Stock Exchange, one of the Danish capital's most famous landmarks, engulfing its spire, which collapsed in a scene reminiscent of the 2019 blaze at Paris' Notre-Dame Cathedral.
The historic building, whose spire was shaped as the tails of four dragons intertwined, had been under renovation and clad in scaffolding when the fire broke out.
"Even my parents who are from another part of Denmark have a little miniature figure of Boersen (Stock Exchange building) in the living room," a 25-year-old political party worker Mathias Andersen said. "We lost something big today."
Parts of the roof had collapsed and the fire spread to several floors of the building, the fire service said, adding the firefighting operation would continue through the night.

Why are these renovation companies so incompetent/not thoroughly vetted? Is this the cost of civic projects being awarded to the lowest bidder??
That’s part of the problem, , immigrant, untrained labour. Renovations of historic buildings used to be done by highly specialized master craftsmen, and apprentices who served years training under the master before they were allowed touch such irreplaceable historic buildings.
Many people working on these buildings now have no real knowledge or respect for their ancient structural makeup.
Damn, another devastating fire caused by renovations, just like Notre Dame and Windsor Castle.
Why such carelessness on the part of contractors?
"Once is an accident, twice is a coincidence, three times is enemy action".
They were exchanging the copper roof, and in an irony the copper roof cant burn so it contained the heat inside making it even more destructive. Alot of art and craftmanship from some of Europes finest artists 400 years ago has been lost.
Devastating loss for Copehagen and on Her Majesty Queen Margrethe ll birthday as well.. 400 years of history going upp in flames.. What a sad.. sad day for Danmark.. my heartfelt Condolences to the Danish people ❤💔😢🇮🇸
We all know what happened, but we cannot say it aloud.
Not everything in life is to be blamed on the ME. Get over yourself! 😂

As a Dane it makes me incredibly upset that fanatic people immediately try to explain this tragic loss of culture by making it a part of their conspiracies
@@radiantpotato
Are they fanatics and conspirators or do you not like what they say?
Please explain why so many fires are caused by restorations. The Notre-Dame de Paris fire of 2019; the Glasgow School of Art fire of 2018; the Texas Governor's Mansion fire in 2008; the Masquerade Club in Istanbul? What's going on?
Renovations make these buildings incredibly vulnerable, especially the scaffolding is a hindrance to firefighters. I have worked as a consultant, specializing in protecting preserving historical buildings. In most cases, these old buildings' roofs are made of wood with metal plating as roofing. Old wood is like kindle. It takes nothing to ignite it. If a fire ignites in the roof the metal acts like an oven, containing the heat and the fire spreads incredibly fast. I hate that some ignorant people are using our national tragedy as an excuse to be hateful.
@@LPdedicated Considering all things is not the same as being hateful.
old buildings being burned goes far back in history just look at the history of old cities all around the world. It's alarming at this point but unfortunately i don't have your answer, only a conspiracy theory i got
Can we get an update on Big Insurance in and around Denmark?
The first rule of fight club is....
let me guess... they will blame this on global warming.
It's Trump's fault too
😂
No religion of peace
RUSSIA DID IT WITH SPACE LAZERS!

Why are restoration workers so careless with such buildings? Notre Dame was also due to restoration work being done.
…Yes, and Windsor Castle.
There is a clash of technologies in restoration Tesla technologies that have been around to meet up with Nicola Teslas' incarnation are the answers that serve everyone the best.!
@@CGMB777 Nah, I think they, some individuals or group, use the renovations to burn things down. Intentionally! Part of the culture war. Remember those who tore down statues in the US snd Canada.
Oh my god whats happening to our world
Good thing you weren't around on 911
Under renovation, copper roof, wooden spire, and full of cultural icons ... sounds similar to what happened in Paris to the Notre Dame cathedral.
@@reensure They got away with it that time. Why not use what works.
@@WalkiTalki Check a few boxes and copy the hell out of it. Absolutely
it's just a fire. calm down. it happens
Sooooo sad! 😢 Fire has no mercy..
Getting rid of the debt?
Mazel tov.
Renovations? Just like Notre Dame.
I hope no one has beein injured or is being injured by smoke inhalation in Copenhagen right now. We hope they all make a full recovery.
?? strange comment to make
destruction of the old world
Sadly 😭
Jest one belding. Wat we say in gaaza ?
Praise be to Israel.
Do you have any historic buildings with priceless paintings in in daza?
@@TroyQwert Probably not, that part of the world is hostile to culture.
Copper roof prob dried out timbers as well. Looking forward to restoration
My condolances for the loss. Time will heal and you will raise the spire again.
There are already made plans from the ministry of culture to rebuild. And the very top of the spire was saved by a firefighter. The dragons will fly again in time. 🐉
Une émotion intense nous étreint, nous, parisiens, quand un joyau du Patrimoine tel que la Bourse de Copenhague s'abime dans les flammes. Mais oui, comme Notre Dame à Paris, ce bâtiment sera reconstruit et sa flèche pointera fièrement ses couronnes vers le ciel , à nouveau
Coincidence?
Wonder how much art will be "missing"...
Interesting that this happens during renovation as happened at Notre Dame and at the Glasgow School O Fart.
Arson maybe, paris fire, started on the roof, at lunchtime? Very very terrible loss... 😢😢😢😢😢😢
Is Israel is blaming Iran for this.
Humus
Looks like a building materials fire. Roofing tar, perhaps?
First Notre Dame now Copenhagens old Stock Exchange. Someone please give me a holler when Buckingham Palace is up for restoration. I will show up, pockets full of sawdust, and accidentally drop a cigarette bud.
funny thing Notre Dames fire started on the same date.
@@georgewettig1860 A day apart, actually. Notre Dame was on April 15th 2024. Børsen (As the Copenhagen Stock Exchange is actually called), was on April 16th.
That is a horrible comment to make.
Doc says she and ah ah so ah and sign sky sky 😂😂
all these old building still need to be up to code, or this will happen.
They had sprinklers, but the fire spread though the elavator shafts. So im guessing that it was up to code
😰🫢😔！
diversity
Always blaming the others.
@@imperiomx6392 ...lm in Canada so have to.....
We all know what happened incompetente Danés screwed up and now haters are blaming those they hate
No one in Denmark is blaming anyone for this. The police hasn't even found the cause of the fire yet and they don't expect to find it for many days.
Die hollywood newz.
prepareforconvidpart2
The karma returns
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$yeah I bet the paintings mb couldn't get them out??? Or mb they did
400 paintings and other art pieces were saved from the fire. People on the street, the Royal Guard, and those who worked in the building, rallied to make sure that as many pieces as possible were saved and handed over to the National History Museum, who now keep these at a secret location.
As long as people are not jumping out of stock exchange buildings like they did in '29 we should be ok.
Which reminds me, isn't it budget day today?
Don't care about oppressors
Renovations? Were the workers Muslim? Like what happened to Notre Dame?
Please don't try to make this a religious thing or even terrorism.

As chairman Mao said
You have to get rid of "the olds".
Well, this did not happen in China, and Denmark certainly is not communist. Denmark is very proud of its national heritage and would not wish to get rid of the olds.
Nothing lasts forever.
The danish government just got caught by a soldier, for violating their own constitution, it was by a homeland security officer who declared war on the government, police, and main military for it the day before. The unit that caught the state was the resistance movement in WW2. The fire was a political strike after the government kept hiding the violation from its citizens. The police have even been aggressive in arresting the officer but failed the day before this, now their building is burning! The police think they can beat a military officer now look at their building burning.
... I think you need to stop listening to Conspiracy theories.
Telling!
