The War in Denmark: public funeral at Copenhagen of officers and soldiers killed at D?ppel, 1864. Engraving from a sketch by Mr. Simonsen. It represents the scene in St. Annes-square, Copenhagen, at the funeral of fourteen of the Danish officers and soldiers killed in the defence of the redoubts at D?ppel on April 18. The funeral took place on the 27th of that month, setting forth from the Garrison Church, which is directly opposite the house of the British Legation. From early morning on that day, flags half mast high had been displayed by the shipping in the port and from many houses in the city...[After the [church service] the coffins were brought out and carried through the streets leading to the Garrison Churchyard...The King and the Landgrave, with their Aides-de- Camp, walked immediately after the last coffin, followed by the Bishop of Copenhagen and numerous clergymen, the Ministers of State, officers of the Army and Navy, the University, the Courts, the President and Town Councillors, and numerous associations with their emblems. These had stood en haye, forming a lane until the long procession had passed them. At the churchyard the ceremony ended with three volleys of musketry. From "Illustrated London News", 1864.
