This is the name of the pedestrian zone in the central part of the Danish capital, sequentially connecting parts of Östergade, Amagertorv, Wimmelskaftet, Nigade and Frederiksberggade streets. This is the oldest pedestrian zone in Europe, formed in the early Middle Ages. There is no better place to walk in Copenhagen.

Officially, the district received its name and status in 1962. The total length of the route along Streget Street is more than two kilometers. At the same time, you will have to go through a maze of narrow and low streets, small courtyards and ancient squares. In the middle, Streget Street crosses Amagertorv Square.
