Bohr family

The Bohr family is a Danish family of scientists, scholars and amateur sportsmen. The most famous members are Niels Bohr, physicist and winner of the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1922, Aage Bohr, son of Niels, also a physicist and in 1975 also received the Nobel Prize, Harald Bohr, mathematician and brother of Niels, etc.

Christian Bohr, a physiologist and professor of physiology, was born to Henrik Georg Christian Bohr. Christian Bohr married Ellen Adler Bohr, the daughter of David Baruch Adler. They had 3 children:

Involvement in Sports

Niels and Harald played as footballers, and the two brothers played a number of amateur matches for the Copenhagen-based Akademisk Boldklub, with Niels in goal and Harald in defence. There is, however, no truth in the oft-repeated claim that Niels emulated Harald by playing for the DenmRK national team.[8] Ernest Bohr was a 1948 Olympic field hockey player.[9]
