The burned-out half of the historic stock exchange in Copenhagen collapsed. It was the last remnant that survived the fire that broke out on Tuesday.
There is still a risk that the remaining facades of Brsen will collapse, says the fire department. The old stock exchange is considered an important architectural asset in the Scandinavian city. The building is simply vital for Copenhagen and the entire cultural history of Denmark, wrote the seven mayors of Copenhagen in a joint statement shortly after the fire - they would do everything to support the reconstruction. It is now home to the Danish Chamber of Commerce, which houses, among other things, a large art collection. The part that the emergency services were able to protect from the fire spreading on Tuesday was also at risk. According to them, there is no knowledge of anyone injured after the collapse.
