Half of Denmark's Old Stock Exchange, the Boersen, was destroyed by a devastating fire, leaving only the outer walls standing and causing the roof to collapse. The 400-year-old landmark, undergoing extensive restoration, was reminiscent of the Notre-Dame Cathedral fire in 2019. While no one was hurt, the cause of the fire remains unknown, and it may take months to determine. Emergency services and passers-by worked to save historic artifacts, and efforts to extinguish the fire are ongoing, with lingering pockets of flames expected to be put out by Thursday morning.
