Baron Boltens Gård

Baron Boltens Gård spans across multiple buildings, featuring a three-story main house with smooth facades and quadrangle-plastered ground floor at Gothersgade 8.

Wine merchant Henrik Bolten constructed the main building in 1771, received the title of Baron in 1783, but faced bankruptcy in 1786 and lived in the attic.

The property evolved from an international trade center named Weltkuglen to a cultural landmark, hosting gatherings of merchants and citizens in the 18th century.

The building connects Gothersgade to Store Kongensgade through a passage and contains multiple structures, including a half-timbered warehouse in the second courtyard.

In 1991, the property transformed into a contemporary art space when Patricia and Jacob Asbæk established their gallery within its historic walls.
