It was once Denmark&#8217;s largest workplace and, in its heyday, employed more than 10,000 workers. B&amp;W was founded in 1843 and after numerous bankruptcies, the shipyard closed in 1996. Today, Refshal\u00f8en is an icon of Danish industrial history. The work that took place on the Template Loft was breathtaking. The ship templates were made in full size, based on the ship drawings. A job that required a lot of space. Today, you can still find the original metal templates and drawings on the ceiling, as decoration on doors and tables.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Links to further history around the B&amp;W era:<\/span><google-sheets-html-origin><\/google-sheets-html-origin><span><\/span><\/p><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div><div class=\"et_pb_module et_d4_element et_pb_video et_pb_video_0\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"et_pb_video_box\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Men &amp;
