Rosenbæk Karréen, decoration

The sculpture consists of 5 bronze heads representing Pablo Picasso, Albert Einstein, Thycho Brahe, Socrates and Darwin.

On your way through the Rosenbaek passage from Brandts, you will be given four clues to help you guess who the 5 bronze heads represent. The bronze artwork itself appears as an integral part of the fountain where the recreated Rosenbæk ends.

In the old days, Rosenbækken (The Rose Creek) didn't exactly smell of roses. The small stream led out of the city in a southerly direction and served as a sewer. Here, the townspeople dumped their rubbish and waste, and the stray livestock also contributed to the smelly little stream.
