Following is a list of notable architects from Denmark.
Assistens Cemetery in Copenhagen, Denmark, is the burial site of many Danish notables as well as an important greenspace in the Nørrebro district. Inaugurated in 1760, it was originally a burial site for the poor laid out to relieve the crowded graveyards inside the walled city, but during the Golden Age in the first half of the 19th century it became fashionable and many leading figures of the epoch, such as Hans Christian Andersen, Søren Kierkegaard, Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg, and Christen Købke are all buried here.
Denmark competed at the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome, Italy. 100 competitors, 88 men and 12 women, took part in 46 events in 15 sports. Cyclist Knud Enemark Jensen died during the team time trial.
Constituent Assembly elections were held in Norway in 1814. The elections were held in Christiania and the surrounding area in February, and in the rest of the country as news of the need for elections arrived. However, in the two Northernmost Amts Nordlandene and Finnmarken in the far north of the country, the elections were not held until July and August, by which time the Assembly had finished its work. As political parties were not officially established until 1884, the 112 elected members were independents.
The Eckersberg Medal is an annual award of the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts. It is named after Christoffer Wilhelm Eckersberg, known as the father of Danish painting.
Mariebjerg Cemetery is located in Gentofte north of Copenhagen, Denmark. It was laid out between 1926 and 1933 to the design of the landscape architect Gudmund Nyeland Brandt and is considered an important example of European Modernist landscape architecture. Its design has inspired many other cemeteries both in Denmark and abroad.
Garrison Cemetery is a cemetery in Copenhagen, Denmark. It was inaugurated in 1671 on a site just outside the Eastern City Gate, as a military cemetery complementing the naval Holmens Cemetery which had been inaugurated a few years earlier on a neighbouring site. Later the cemetery was opened to civilian burials as well.

Nyhavn 13 is a historic townhouse overlooking the Nyhavn Canal in central Copenhagen, Denmark. With roots dating back to the late 17th century, it owes its current appearance to a heightening of the building with two floors in 1842. Notable former residents include the businessman Abraham Marcus Hirschsprung and the painter and educator Wilhelm Kyhn. The building was listed in the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1945.
The Danish Constituent Assembly is the name given to the 1848 Constitutional assembly at Christiansborg Palace in Copenhagen that approved the Danish Constitution and formalized the transition from absolute monarchy to constitutional democracy.

A Meeting in the Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters is a monumental 1897 oil-on-canvas group portrait painting by Peder Severin Krøyer, depicting the membership of Royal Danish Academy of Sciences and Letters during one of its meetings in the Prince's Mansion in Copenhagen. The painting was commissioned by the Carlsberg Foundation in conjunction with the construction of its new building on H. C. Andersens Boulevard. Measuring 519.4 cm (204.5 in) wide and 266.7 cm (105.0 in) tall, it is Krøyer's largest painting.
Kompagnistræde 32 is a Neoclassical property situated on Kompagnistræde, between Rådhusstræde and Hestemøllestræde, in the Old Town of Copenhagen, Denmark. Built with three storeys over a walk-out basement by Andreas Hallander in 1799, it was later expanded by one storey in the 1840s. A brewery was operated in a rear wing from its construction until at least the 1860s. The building was listed in the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1968. An adjacent warehouse and the rear wings are not part of the heritage listing. The Danish Union of Teachers was headquartered in the building from 1957. The union is now based at nearby Vandkunsten 12 but their old headquarters is still owned by them and let out as office space.
The Gerling House is a late 17th-century building complex situated at Strandgade 38 in the Christianshavn district of central Copenhagen, Denmark. It consists of a three-storey, four-bays-wide front wing towards the street and a 13-bays-long two-storey side wing on its rear. The master cooper Peter Richter established a cooper's workshop in the building in the 1830s and the property was after his death owned by his widow until 1880. The building was listed in the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1918. Notable former residents include the naval officer and painter Sophus Schack.
