Danish architecture has been influenced by Romanesque and Gothic architecture during the Middle Ages.

In the medieval period, Denmark began to use brick in buildings such as castles and churches.

In the 16th century, large palaces and castles were constructed in Renaissance style by Dutch and Flemish architects in Denmark. Houses in Denmark were designed in wood during the 16th century.

During the 17th and 18th centuries, Baroque architecture had an influence in both urban centers and rural areas of Denmark.

The neoclassical architectural movement, which spread from France and Italy in the mid-18th century, was also used in Denmark.

In the 18th and 19th centuries, historical revivalism and national romanticism influenced Danish architecture.

In the 1960s, functionalism became prevalent in Danish architecture.

The port city of Svendborg in Denmark became an important commercial area in the 19th century, after which brick and stone houses were lined along narrow streets.

In Skagen, Denmark, white-painted houses with red tiled roofs were built. Yellow and red tones dominated urban development structures in Danish architecture.

Since 2000, Danish architecture has shown development both domestically and internationally.
