Hassagers Kollegium, University dormitory in Frederiksberg Municipality, Denmark
Hassagers Kollegium is a former pleasure house located at Frederiksberg Bredegade 13 that features seven sections with two floors and an attic. The exterior displays a dark brown facade over a gray base with the original architectural proportions preserved.
Dorothea Hassager founded the dormitory in memory of her late husband Carl Hassager, and it opened its doors on September 25, 1900. The building itself was originally constructed around 1800 as a pleasure house before it gained its new purpose.
The building is a protected monument that shows features of Danish architecture from the early 1800s. Visitors can observe the crafted details like stucco ceilings and wooden paneling that reflect this period.
The dormitory is home to University of Copenhagen students who have completed at least two years of study. The rooms are small personal spaces, so visitors should take appropriate care to respect the residents' privacy.
The building retains its original wooden floors and stucco ceilings from 1800, offering a glimpse into the craftsmanship of that era. These materials and their preservation allow visitors to directly experience the construction methods and taste of the period.
