Dalgas Boulevard is a broad avenue in the Frederiksberg district of Copenhagen, Denmark. It runs from Roskildevej in the south to Femte Juni Plads in the north, intersecting Peter Bangs Vej and Finsensvej on the way.
History
The road was planned and it was already at this point decided to name it after the officer and road engineer Enrico Dalgas. Construction did not start until 1911.{{cite web|url=http://dengang.dk/artikler/2124|title=Flere gader og veje på Frederiksberg (K – Å)|language=Danish|website=dengang.dk|accessdate=17 January 2017}}
