Who was Christen Mikkelsen Kold?
Christen Mikkelsen Kold was a Danish teacher, notable for creating the Danish high-school system.
Kold was born in Thisted, Jutland.
Unsatisfied with the education system of Denmark at the time, he founded a school in Ryslinge in 1851, which later became a model for the folk high-school system. His work has to be seen in context with that of N. F. S. Grundtvig.
Kold died in Dalum, Fyn.
