The tour continues to “Havnepladsen” (the Harbour Square), where there is a statue of the town’s most famous son, the poet Jens Baggesen. He stands with a flower, a pansy,in his hand to symbolise the way in which the ill treatment he received in Denmark disallowed his talent to blossom. You are now in Havnegade, which was built after 1850 on reclaimed land. Not so long ago, did the waters of the Great Belt come right op to where the houses of Algade now stand.
