Christianshavn - An ocean outside the window. Photographic book about the 400 year old neighborhood of Christianshavn in Copenhagen, Denmark.

This book about Christianshavn is a portrait of a colourful village in the heart of Copenhagen.

Christianshavn lies surrounded by old ramparts on one side and the harbour on the other. It is a tale of the seven seas, the revolution of ’68 and slum transforming into a creative melting pot. But first of all, Christianshavn is a home. Photographer Pernille Kaalund has portrayed thirty-two residents who talk about life at the sailor’s home, in the workshops, the backyards, and the local pubs.

Christianshavn – an ocean outside the window is the one and only coffee table book made in this local area. The book was published in august 2018 during Christianahavn 400 years celebration.
