History[]
Højbro Plads 6 was built in 1804-1806 by Niels Schønberg Kurtzhals (c.1773-1829) for textile merchant Lorentz Andreas Hinrichsen. The property was one of the last buildings on the square to be completed after the whole area had been destroyed in the Copenhagen Fire of 1795.
Henrichsen was married to Marie Christine Wolff (1776-1830) and they had fice children, two bos and three girls, by the time that the building was completed. They later had three more children of which one, a daughter, died as an infant. Lorentz Andreas Hinrichsen died in 1824.[1]
The building was listed on the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1918.[2]
Architecture[]
The building is four storeys high and five bays wide. The outer windows on the first floor are topped by triangular pediments. A depression indicates that a frieze has originally been located above the windows of the second floor.[3]
