Skjoldborg

The impresive building located in Valseværksgade was created by the English copper rollings baron Thomas English, in the start of 1800.

He lived there with his familie, and the park in front of the house still carries the traits of an English garden. Behind the house was the large water Powder Works which produced copperplates for the Danish navy and for the royal Danish coin in Copenhagen.

From factory to volunteer center

In 1907 Sjoldborg transformed into a home for the weak and sick. Today, the building is home for the volunteer center in Halsnæs.

The park-like garden in front of Skjoldborg is today used as a breathing space in the middle of town for the citizens of Frederiksværk.
