This is inside the world's 7th biggest hospital (30 000 square meters), the tallest building in Denmark (120 meters and 25 floors) and the biggest hospital, which employs 4000 persons. Very impressive! It has a lot of elevators (52), and it took some time to film all the ones that I was able to ride (at least more than 40)! It was completed in 1975 and opened in 1976, after a decade of construction. 

This is inside the service building of the hospital, which also has several interesting old elevators! This one is an old OTIS from 1975, really amazing!
