Brolæggerstræde 6 is a Neoclassical property situated in the Old Town of Copenhagen, Denmark. It was listed in the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1950. Former residents include the later bishop Jacob Peter Mynster and the politician Balthazar Christensen.

History

18th century

In the late 17th century the site was part of two separate properties situated at the corner of Brolæggerstræde and the street Endeløsstræde, which no longer exists. The Tailor's Guild Hall occupied the part of the site that bordered on Brolæggerstræde. This property was listed as No. 118 in Snaren's Quarter (Snarens Kvarter) in 1689. The adjacent site in Endeløsstræde was listed as No. 134 in Snaren's Quarter in 1689, owned by Henrik Schultz.[1]

Together with most of the other buildings in the area, the two properties were destroyed in the Copenhagen Fire of 1728. The old No. 134 and the western part of No. 117 were subsequently divided into three smaller properties. The corner property was listed as No. 102 in 1756, owned by distiller Niels Rasmussen. The adjacent property in Brolæggerstræde was listed as No. 101, owned by Ulrik Larsen Bruun. The adjacent property in Endeløsstræde was listed as No. 120, owned by goldsmith Lars Bisgaard.

The three properties were later merged into a single property. At the time of the 1787 census, it was listed as No. 101/102 and home to a total of 47 people distributed among 12 households. Jens Rasmussen Lund, a former distiller and the owner of the property, resided there with his wife Anne Nielsen and one maid.[2] Peder Ohlsen Dahl, a grocer (spækhøker), resided in the building with his wife Kirsten Peders Datter and one maid.[3] Johan Conradt Gobel, a hairdresser, resided in the building with his wife Marie Beckstrøm.[4] Christian Pedersen, an accountant at the Lottery, resided in the building with his wife Catrine Salto and one lodger.[5] Christian Bastian, a master shoemaker, resided in the building with his wife Dorte Knudsen, their three sons (aged seven to 15) and two shoemakers working for him.[6] Heiman Hertz, an employee at the synagogue, resided in the building with his wife Gudel Joels and three daughters from his first marriage (aged 18 to 22).[7] Levin Samson and Hanne Levin, another Jewish couple (no occupation mentioned in the census records), resided in the building with their two children (aged six and seven) and one maid.[8] Bodil Elvig (née Holm), resided in the building with her two children and two maids.[9] Marcus Levin Hartig (1755–1809), a merchant dealing in East Asian goods, resided in the building with his wife Johanne, their three children (aged two to five) and two maids.[10] Bratke Abrahams, a 66-year-old widow, resided in the building with the lodger Pesche Marcus.[11] Kirstine Hansen, another widow, employed with needlework, resided in the building with the lodger Alhed Kiersgaard Møller.[12] Andreas Rumberg, a joiner, resided in the building with his wife Anne Regine Maas and their two-year-old daughter Lovise Auguste Rumberg.[13]

Together with most of the other buildings in the area, Lund's property was destroyed in the Copenhagen Fire of 1795. The present building on the site was constructed for him in 1797–1798.[14]
