Vision for the Project

​​Towards 2030–2032, we are building the new Bispebjerg Hospital — a welcoming, human-centered hospital and a green oasis in the heart of Copenhagen.

The project brings together Bispebjerg and Frederiksberg Hospitals, creating modern facilities designed around the needs of patients and staff. All patients will have single-bed rooms, and the architecture will ensure care, comfort, and efficiency at every stage of treatment.

New Hospital Bispebjerg is one of Denmark’s most complex and inspiring hospital projects. We are committed to open dialogue, listening to local needs, and keeping our surroundings in-formed throughout the construction process.

A Healing Environment

​​The new Bispebjerg Hospital brings together healing architecture and green surroundings to support recovery, well-being, and modern healthcare.

Inspired by the hospital’s original early 1900s pavilion design, the new buildings will preserve its characteristic light, openness, and connection to nature. Six ward buildings will offer patient rooms with views of gardens and parkland, creating a calm and restorative atmosphere.

The expansion integrates lush green areas, including a central park that welcomes visitors and patients alike. Designed in harmony with the historic architecture, the new facilities will make nature an active part of treatment and rehabilitation.

Modern Facilities for Patients

​​The new Bispebjerg Hospital will offer single-bed rooms for all patients and a modern, healing environment that supports comfort, privacy, and effective treatment.

Designed to promote both activity and well-being, the hospital will create a vibrant setting for patients, staff, and visitors. The layout supports smooth workflows and efficient care, while respecting the hospital’s historic architecture.

As Bispebjerg and Frederiksberg Hospitals merge, new facilities will be built on the northern part of the site to meet future healthcare needs. The listed pavilion buildings will be restored and used for outpatient care, administration, and education.

Building on a Historic Legacy

​Bispebjerg Hospital opened in 1913 as a visionary healthcare project, designed by Martin Nyrop — the architect behind Copenhagen City Hall. It introduced groundbreaking features for its time, including underground corridors, elevators, and quiet signal lamps for patient care.

Set in landscaped gardens on what was then the outskirts of Copenhagen, the hospital's green surroundings continue to define it as a calm oasis in the city.

During World War II, the hospital became part of the Danish resistance, sheltering Jews and resistance members and serving as a base for underground activities.
