Mørkhøj

Mørkhøj is a suburb c. 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) northwest of central Copenhagen, Denmark.

The area is mixed with single-family homes and public housing and light industry.

[1] In 1635, Mørkhøj comprised six arable farms whose principal crops were barley (66%), rye (19%) and oats (13%), cultivated using the three-field system.

[3] Of the original village, only the Mørkhøjgård [da] main building remains today.

It housed the Danish Veterinary and Food Administration [da] until 2017, and is now proposed for redevelopment.
