Lille Strandstræde 12 is an 18th-century property situated in the Nyhavn Quarter of central Copenhagen, Denmark. The building owes its current appearance to an adaptation in 1858. It was listed in the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1950.

History[]

18th century[]

In the late 17th century the site was part of a larger property. It was listed as No. No. 27 in St. Ann's East Quarter (Sankt Annæ Kvarter) in 1689 and owned by Admiral Marcus Rodsten. It was later divided into several smaller properties. The property now known as Lille Strandstræde 12 was listed as No. 101 by 1756 and owned by Johan Casper Silberloh, cashier for Kjøbenhavns Brandforsikring (Copenhagen Fire Insurance).[1]

The current building was constructed before 1732 as a clergy house in association with the Garrison Church on Sankt Annæ Plads.[1]

At the time of the 1787 census, No. 101 was home to three households.

Nicolai Georg Heining, a former textile merchant and the owner of the property, resided there with his wife Elisab.Louisa, their two children (aged 20 and 24), a male servant and two maids.[2] C. M. Bozenhard, an imperial consul, resided in the building with his wife Johanne Henriette Bozenhard, a male servant and a maid.[3] The third household consisted of Hans J.Sellerup and Else Sørens Datter, their two children (aged three and seven) and three lodgers.[4]

19th century[]

At the time of the 1801 census, No. 101 was home to three households.

Marsilius Knutzen, a judge, resided in the building with his wife Meta Kirstine Knutzen, their four children (aged two to nine), a male servant, a caretaker, two maids and an office clerk.[5] Poul Friis, a senior clerk (guldmægtig), resided in the building with his wife Mariane Clausen and one clerk.[6] Anders Christiansen Schou, a beer seller (øltapper), resided in the building with his wife Christine Wils, a maid and five lodgers (all of them sailors).[7]

In the new cadastre of 1806, the property was listed as No. 69. It was owned by Ole Lind at the time.

At the time of the 1840 census, No. 69 was home to a total of 35 people.[8] Carl Wilhelm Friederich von Kirchner, a captain, was residing with his wife, daughter and a maid on the first floor. Johan Selch, a building painter, was residing with his wife and daughter on the second floor. Maren Schmidt, a widowed cleaning lady at the Royal Danish Theatre, was residing with her two daughters on the same floor. Johan August Schmidicke, a master chimney sweeper, resided with his family and a couple of employees on the ground floor. Gundel Magrete Erichsen, the widow of a cooper, was continuing her late husband's business in the rear wing.

The number of residents decreased to 19 in 1845.[9]

The politician Peter Sabroe (1867–1913) was a resident in the building in 1909–1910.[10]

Architecture[]

Lille Strandstræde 12 owes its current appearance to an adaptation in 1858. The four central bays of the two-storey building were tipped by a triangular pediment until then but it was replaced by a mansard roof clad with red tiles. The brick facade was at the same time rendered in a red colour with two white cornice bands.

The rear side of the building is constructed with red-painted timber framing and ocher-coloured infills. A nine-bay half-timbered side wing extends from the rear side of the building along the north side of a cobbled courtyard. The first four bays of the side wing are topped by a mansard roof and the remaining five bays by a monopitched roof.

The side wing is attached to a half-timbered rear wing. A gateway in the cross wing provides access to a second courtyard.

Today[]

Lille Strandstræde 12 has been divided into condominiums and is jointly owned by the owners through E/F Lille Strandstræde 12.
