The Povl Badstuber House (Danish: Povl Badstubers Gård) is a historic property at Nørregade 13 in the Old Town of Copenhagen, Denmark.
History
A boys' school associated with St. Petri Church on the other side of the street was formerly located at the site. The current building was constructed in 1730–1732 for cobbersmith and manufacturer Povl Badstuber.[1]
Povl Badstuber had to sell the house when he went bankrupt after a few years.
The historian Frederik E. Schiern (1816–1882) lived in the building from 1847 until 1852. The architect Peder Malling (1787–1865) lived on the second floor in 1860–1865.[1]
Architecture
The building is three floors tall and five bays wide. The facade is decorated with dour pilasters flanking the two double-wide corner bays and is tipped by a rounded wall dormer. Eight cannon balls are embedded in the masonry above the gate. They were found in the building in connection with a renovation in about 1900.[1] The building was listed in 1918.[2]
