In 1853, the young N. A. Christensen left his occupation as a bookkeeper to begin his iron foundry adventure – an adventure that took its beginning in Nykøbing Mors. Despite fierce competition from other foundries in larger towns, the small handful of blacksmiths, turners and joiners created an icon that extended far beyond this North Jutland town from which it sprung. It was an icon created through innovation, based on design, quality and fine workmanship. And, thus, it will forever be sitting pretty in Danish homes as well as out in the great wide world. An icon that we have all come to know as Morsø.
