The Academy of Denmark in Rome (in Danish Det Danske Institut i Roma) was inaugurated in 1956 with headquarters in the building of the Primoli Foundation in via Zanardelli. In the mid-1960s, the Carlsberg Foundation commissioned the architect Kay Fisker to build the new residence on a piece of land near Villa Borghese given in free concession by the Italian State. The building, with its minimalist shapes, recalls modern Danish architecture: on the brick façade opens a staircase which leads to a large terrace around which revolve the rooms intended to accommodate the fellows, the photographic and archaeological laboratories, a soundproofed room for music, the director's apartment and the library. The Academy is a member of the prestigious International Union of Institutes of Archeology, History and Art History in Rome and is part of the URBS network of libraries. The Institute collaborates with many Danish and foreign institutions, with universities and other Italian bodies.
