Lauritz de Thurah (1706–1759) was a key figure in Danish Baroque architecture, responsible for iconic buildings like the Hermitage Hunting Lodge and the spire of Copenhagen’s Church of Our Saviour. This book explores his architectural achievements and his diverse roles in 18th-century Denmark.
An in-depth look at Lauritz de Thurah’s architectural legacy and his impact on Danish Baroque culture.
This monograph centers on architect and scholar Peter Thule Kristensen’s detailed study of Thurah’s intricate and influential architectural work. Complementing this are chapters by experts Else Marie Bukdahl, Martin Søberg, Thomas Lyngby, Natalie Patricia Körner, Sanne Maekelberg, and Nina Ventzel Riis, which examine Thurah’s many roles beyond architecture.
These include his contributions as a leading architectural historian, topographer, grand tour traveler, civil servant, military officer, and a pioneer within Denmark’s evolving social hierarchy during the era of absolute monarchy.
