Brønnum House, Historic building in Kongens Nytorv, Denmark

The Brønnum House stands as a three-winged structure with ornate stucco decorations, iron balconies, and grotesque masques among the keystones at Kongens Nytorv.

Architect Ferdinand Vilhelm Jensen designed this residential building in 1866 during the transformation of former Gammelholm naval dockyards into a new neighborhood.

The building housed notable residents Martin Henriques and Bernhard Hirschsprung, who frequently welcomed Hans Christian Andersen and other Danish cultural figures.

The renovated building contains 140 workplaces in a modern office setting, with special registration required for public visits on Saturdays from 10 AM to 5 PM.

The interior preserves rare Japanese gilt-leather wallpaper from the Hirschsprung period and contains a painting by Thorvald Niss of the Skagen school.
