The historic building Børsen in Copenhagen is on fire.
The building is undergoing renovation, and there is scaffolding around the burning structure.
The Capital Region Fire Brigade is actively working on extinguishing the fire, with both employees, volunteers, soldiers, and the rescue team striving to save valuables, including historical paintings, from the building.
The iconic spire has fallen to the ground, and the roof has collapsed.
As of 11 o’clock, the fire is still not under control.
