context_page_description: Sjællandsgade is a street in the Nørrebro district of Copenhagen, Denmark. It runs from Nørrebrogade in the southwest to Tagensvej in the northeast. A short section of the street, between Prinsesse Charlottes Gade and Stevnsgade, has been closed to traffic and is now also known as Guldberg Byplads. It is surrounded by one of two branches of Guldberg School, Simeon's Church and Sjællandsgade Public Baths. The last part of the street follows the northwest side of De Gamles By.
context_section_description: Sjællandsgade School is from 1887 and was designed by Hans Jørgen Holm. The school was in 1921 extended by city architect Hans Wright. Sjællandsgade School was in 2006 merged with Stevnsgade School under the name Guldberg School.
  Simeon's Church (No. 12B) is a Church of Denmark parish church. It was constructed in 1913-14 to designs by Johannes Magdahl Nielsen.
  Sjællandsgade Public Baths (No. 12 A) is attached to the church. It opened in 1917 as one of several new public bath houses in the city but closed when private bathrooms had become common later in the century. The Baroque Revival style building by city architect Hans Wright was listed on the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 2013. The bath house was shortly thereafter reopened by a group of volunteers.
  The section from Guldbergsgade to Tagensvej follows the northwestern boundary of De Gamles By. Copenhagen Health and Care Services (Sundheds- og Omsorgsforvaltningen) is based at No. 40.
  The buildings on the other side of the street are mainly apartment blocks from the 1920s. The apartment block at No. 9-13 was built for ABB to designs by Johannes Strøm Tejsen in 1917-18. The block at No. 15 is from 1918–19 and was designed by Christian Mandrup-Poulsen. No. 17-21 is from 1921 and was designed by Einar Ambt and Axel Preisler.
