Nørrebro is one of the 10 official districts of Copenhagen, Denmark. It is located northwest of the City Centre, beyond the location of the old Northern Gate (Nørreport), which, until dismantled in 1856, was near the current Nørreport station.

Nørrebro is also known for its poly-cultural society, mostly from Middle-Eastern background. The dynamic, multiethnic main street Nørrebrogade runs through the area, with a multitude of shops and restaurants. One of the main points of interest in the area is historic Assistens Cemetery (Danish: Assistens Kirkegård), final resting place of Søren Kierkegaard, Niels Bohr and H.C. Andersen.

Nørrebro is a multiethnic society, and is inhabited by people from all parts of the world. The largest minority groups of people living in Nørrebro are Arabs, Iranians, Pakistanis, and many more.
