Møinichen Mansion, Baroque mansion at Købmagergade, Denmark.

The Møinichen Mansion features a seven-bay facade with a central projection topped by a triangular pediment and decorated with pilasters.

Constructed between 1729 and 1733 by architect Philip de Lange, the building served as headquarters of Royal Danish Mail from 1779 until 1912.

The structure transformed from a private residence to a central post office, reflecting the evolution of Copenhagen's municipal services over centuries.

The building now contains retail spaces on the ground floor and office areas on upper levels following its acquisition by PFA pension fund.

The mansion witnessed the fall of its original owner Christian Møinichen, who lost favor at court after King Frederick IV's death in 1730.
