Bernstorffsvej is a major road in the Gentofte Municipality, located in the northern suburbs of Copenhagen, Denmark.

In 1752, the pheasantry at Jægersborg was given to Count Johann Hartwig Ernst von Bernstorff from the King.

Jean Marmillod, a French engineer, was called to Denmark by Bernstorff to improve the road systems around Copenhagen.

In the late 18th and 19th century, along with the road that originated in the old farms, several of the properties were converted into country houses.

The church was designed by Alf Cock-Clausen, who also replaced Rygaard's south wing with a new building, containing classrooms for the school.

The current buildings date back to 1920 and were designed by the architects Therkel Hjejle and Niels Rosenkjær.

17, which was made in 1931, was built as a test house for Dansk Cement Central by the architect Frits Schlegel.

In front of Gentofte Town Hall, there is a group of sculptures called "The Freedom Monument," designed by Axel Poulsen[3] in 1954.

The sculpture was created in collaboration with Royal Copenhagen,[4] consisting of circa 500 glazed ceramic tiles in white, blue, and reddish-brown colors.
