Barchmann Mansion, Baroque mansion in central Copenhagen, Denmark.

The three-winged mansion features red brick construction, sandstone pilasters, and a mansard roof along Frederiksholm Canal in central Copenhagen.

Built between 1740 and 1741 by architect Philip de Lange for Jacob Barchmann, who rented the property to foreign envoys instead of living there.

The mansion, registered on the Kulturstyrelsen monument list since 1918, represents Danish architectural excellence from the eighteenth century baroque period.

Located at Ny Kongensgade 1, the mansion currently functions as part of Johan Borup's Folk High School and maintains its educational purpose.

The property underwent division in 1926 when Borup Folk High School moved into one section, creating two separate functional spaces within the structure.
