Denmark's 17th-century Børsen, a symbol of cultural heritage, succumbed to flames in Copenhagen. Onlookers watched in shock as the dragon-adorned spire fell. Firefighters battled for hours to control the blaze, with half of the building destroyed. Scaffolding around the structure hindered rescue efforts. The cause remains unknown. Culture Minister mourns the loss of 400 years of history. The building, under renovation, housed the Danish Chamber of Commerce and valuable artworks. Prime Minister expresses sorrow over the tragedy. Citizens and officials rally to save precious artifacts. The incident evokes memories of Notre-Dame fire in Paris.
