History

18th century

No. 15 seen on a detail from Christian Gedde's map of Strand Quarter, 1756.

The property was listed as No. 15 in Strand Quarter in Copenhagen's first cadastre of 1689 and was at the time owned by councilman Peter Motzfeldt.[1] His property continued all the way to Læderstræde on the other side of the block. The property was later destroyed in the Copenhagen Fire of 1728, together with most of the other buildings in the area. A new building on the site was constructed for royal chamber secretary and chamber cassier Georg Christians Jacobi (1694-1757) in 1732–33.[2] The property was again listed as No. 15 in the new cadastre of 1756 and was then owned by the crown. The part of the property that fronted Læderstræde (now Læderstræde 13) had been sold off to Christian Berg. It was marked as No. 15 B on Christian Gedde's 1757 map of Strand Quarter.[1]

Christian Bastholm

The property was home to just 12 residents in three households at the time of the 1787 census. Christian Bastholm [da], Chaplain-in-Ordinary to the king, resided in the building with two of his children (aged 13 and 15), a housekeeper, two maids and one male servant.[3] Jochum Rubarth, a tailor, resided in the building with his 10-year-old daughter and one maid.[4] Maria Linck, a widow junk dealer, resided in the building with her 35-year-old son Johan Peter Linck.[5]

The building was destroyed in the Copenhagen Fire of 1795. The fire came from the east and stopped just a few houses further down the waterfront at Naboløs. The current building on the site was constructed in 1797 by Andreas Hallander for Kathrine Marie Clausen, widow of clockmaker Oluf Lyngager.[2] Her late husband had served as alderman of the Clockmakers' Guild from 15 October 1770 to15 October 1787.

Gammel Strand 35 is constructed with three storeys over a walk-out basement. The seven-bays-wide facade is decorated with lesenes between the windows, a belt course above the ground floor and a modillioned cornice.. The lesenes were originally fluted and there were rosettes below the windows but these decorative elements were removed in around 1850. The ground floor of the facade is finished with shadow joints.A gateway is located in the bay furthest to the right. The keystone above the gate features Jacobi's coat of arms and dates from the 1730s. The basement entrance is located in the second bay from the left. The pitched red tile roof features three dormer windows towards thestreet.[2]

A side wing extends from the rear side of the building along the western side of a central courtyard.

The facade of the warehouse is crowned by a wall dormer but the original pulley beam has been removed. The yardside of the complex is rendered yellow.[2]
