Der er 4 trapper i hjørnerne af pladsen. I alle hjørnerne leger runde småbørn med hinanden og med forskellige dyr, og klatrer i træer. Her er det sydøst-hjørnet. I baggrunden restauranten "Kitschen" - før var det caféen Escobar, og tidligere værtshuset Rottehullet, og tidligere Møhges bar.
  In the four corners of the square are sculptures of trees, in which toddlers climb in play with each other, and animals.

South-east corner. The gardner's child helps plant a fruit tree. In Blaagaard's Plads you find the granite sculptures by Kai Nielsen from 1916, most depicting someone plying a trade, in the company of a charming toddler.

Tømreren. I baggrunden Blågårds Antikvariat - køb en aktie for 500 kr! Vi skal beholde vores boghandel i gaden.
The carpenter and his child. The second-hand bookshop is transforming itself to a limited company - do buy a share (500 kr.) so that we can keep the bookshop!

På sydsiden sidder smeden med den muskuløse ryg. Barnet leger med en hestesko.
The southern wall. The blacksmith's granite muscles are - well, come and have a look and a feel...
The child is playing with a horse-shoe

Nordøsthjørnet. Fiskeren og hans barn leger selvfølgelig med et legetøjsskib.
Udsigt til "Kroteket", et stemningsfuldt værtshus med levende musik og kunstudstillinger og stolte traditioner for fællesskab og solidaritet.
In the North-East corner the fisherman and his child play with a toy ship. The pub in the background was formerly a chemist's, so the pub is often called Blaagaards Apotek. Some of the old cabinets are still there. A place with live music, local artists' exhibiting their art, and a proud tradition of solidarity .

Nordsiden af pladsen med talerstolen. Arbejdsmanden har fået fri, og spiller harmonika.
The north wall. After work hours the labourer plays the accordion.

Udsigt til Blågårdsgade 25 og 27. Skulpturen er en fiskerkone og hendes barn, som ordner fisk, gør klar til salg
A view towards Blaagaardsgade 25 and 27. The sculpture depicts a fishwife and her child, cleaning fish for selling.

Her har vi taler-platformen - Blågårds Plads har altid dannet rammen om demonstrationer for arbejderes og kvinders rettigheder. 
In the middle of the north wall is the platform for public speaking at demonstrations and cultural activities. Right from the start a working class neighbourhood, this is where substantial demonstrations took (and indeed take) their starting point - it began with "8 hours' work, 8 hours' spare time, 8 hours' sleep"  - not to mention fights for women's right to vote (1915), and other rights. A working week in Denmark is 37½ hours. 
The granite kiddies play with rabbits and owls.

En kvinde omgivet af frugt og grønt ammer sit barn - en torvekone måske?
This woman nursing her baby is surrounded by fruit and vegetables - probably a market-trader.

Et jævnt måltid uden dikkedarer
Meal-time - nothing fancy!

Granitbørn og nutidsbørn klæder hinanden synes jeg. Nordvest hjørnet. Her ligger en restaurant, og et værksted med salg af flot flot håndlavet keramik. Stil, mand!
A 21st century live child walks by the 20th century granite children. The windows are those of a top class pottery with beautiful stylish things
 

Vestfrisen. Skomageren laver en støvle.
The west wall. Cobbler making a boot.

Mureren med sit barn, og legepladsen. Der er ikke en grønsvær i miles omkreds her, men der er faktisk kommet en boldspilhal i Korsgade - med over 100 års forsinkelse.
This is the bricklayer and his child, and the playground. We have NO playing fields in Noerrebro.

Hvad er der i tønden, far? Bødkeren.
The cooper in the south-west corner

Stenhuggeren. I baggrunden Blågårds bibliotek. Sydsiden
The Stone Mason; The windows are those of the library

Skrædderen syr, i den kolde sne
This is the tailor. One certainly needs warm clothes in this weather
 

Skrædderens barn.
This is the taylor's child.

Bageren ælter dej - man ser indgangen til "Støberiet", som kulturhuset nu hedder. Her lå jo engang Anker Heegaards jernstøberier.
The baker is kneading his dough - in the building behind is "The Foundry", the new name for our cultural centre. This whole area was once the site of Anker Heegaard's iron works before they moved further out of town and gave room for Blaagaards Plads (about 1900)

Brolæggeren og hans barn, som holder "brolægger-jomfruen"
The paver laying a paving stone, and his child holding the rammer

Jeg er ikke helt sikker på om jeg kan lide det her....
Snow is strange - I'm not yet sure it's fun.
