Wegener House, Historical building in Vesterbro district, Copenhagen, Denmark
The Wegener House spans across seven bays with a plastered facade, crowned by a modilioned cornice and traditional red-tiled roof on Vesterbrogade.
Built in 1867, the structure replaced the former site of James Price's summer theatre and Vesterbro Morskabsteater, marking a transition from entertainment to literary pursuits.
C.F. Wegener transformed the property into an intellectual center by adding a library wing to house his collection of 22,000 volumes.
The ground floor currently houses the Vesterbro Pharmacy, while the former library space serves as a meeting venue for up to 100 people.
The property originated as Den Hvide Svane inn in 1740, later evolving through various roles including a pantomime theater before becoming Wegener's residence.
