Harsdorff House, Neoclassical mansion at Kongens Nytorv, Copenhagen, Denmark.

The central section of the three-facade building features Ionic pilasters and a triangular pediment with relief decorations at Kongens Nytorv 3-5.

Danish architect Caspar Frederik Harsdorff constructed this building in 1780 as a model for other master builders during Copenhagen's urban development.

Restaurant Vincent, which operated in the building during the 19th century, received notable guests including French author Jules Verne in 1861.

The building now houses the Harsdorffs Hus Office Club and underwent a complete restoration by architectural firm Fogh & Følner in 1999.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs occupied this architectural landmark for nearly 60 years, from 1864 until 1923, marking a significant period in its history.
