an introduction to the historic buildings of the Carlsberg Brewery ....
/The site of the Carlsberg brewery in Copenhagen is not just large - by 2008, when brewing here ended, the brewery covered some 33 hectares - but it is also a complicated industrial site that evolved over a period of 150 years as both the technology of brewing on a large scale - so brewing on a truly industrial scale - developed and as the company expanded.
The basic story might appear to be fairly straightforward: a new brewery was established here in 1847 and brewing continued on the site until 2008 but this is not simply the story of a brewery. For a start, there were three separate breweries here.
