Nyhavn 6, Neoclassical building in Nyhavn, Copenhagen, Denmark

The six-bay-wide structure rises four stories high with a black-tiled pitched roof and features a prominent chimney at its ridge point.

The property was sold by royal decree in 1771 to distiller Jacob Christensen for 292 rigsdaler and 48 skilling during a campaign to upgrade canal buildings.

Composer Carl Nielsen and sculptor Anne Marie Carl-Nielsen made their first home together in the fourth-floor apartment from 1891 to 1896.

The building contains multiple condominiums managed by E/F Nyhavn 6 A-B, with a front wing that received heritage protection status in 1950.

In 1880, the property housed 52 residents across nine households, including retailers, typographers, engineers, and a barkeeper living under one roof.
