The pedestrian streetThe first pedestrian streets arose in bombed European cities afterWorld War II. Denmark was given its first permanent pedestriansteet in 1963 – the street Houmeden in Randers. In the course of thenext 10-15 years many other Danish towns and cities were also givenpedestrian streets – often with paving that was inspired by Houmeden’sblack and white slabs. The traders in the first pedestriansteets were not all full of unmixed enthusiasm. They foresaw fallingturnover when the customers could no longer drive directly to theshop door. But just the opposite happened. Turnover increased, andso did the popularity of the pedestrian streets.In the pedestrian street area of the 1970s in Den Gamle By, Houmeden’spaving has been recreated and supplemented with pennants,flag garlands and notices from Skive and other towns’ pedestrianstreets. Today the automobile-free pedestrian streets are seenas pleasant places to hang out – something quite different from thehectic shopping streets of earlier times.
