Store Kannikestræde 6 is an 18th-century building situated in Store Kannikestræde in the Old Town of Copenhagen, Denmark. It was constructed in the second half of the 1730s as part of the rebuilding of the city following the Copenhagen Fire of 1728 and later heightened with one storey in the 1790s. It was listed in the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1945. Notable former residents include the antiquarian bookdealer Herman H. J. Lynge and publisher and editor Gottlieb Siesbye.

History[edit]

18th century[edit]

Store Kannikestræde 6—10 was formerly the site of a large mansion known as Kanslergården, owned by Vice Chancellor Holger Vind. His widow Marie née Giede kept the property upon his death in 1683. Her property was listed in Copenhagen's first cadastre of 1689 as No. 43 in Klædebo Quarter.[1] Upon her death it was first passed to their son Wilhelm Carl Wind, owner of Harestedgård. On his death just two years later, it passed to his relative Frederik Eiler Gedde, his widow Abel Cathrine von Buchwald and finally to Johan Friderich Brockenhuus.[2]

In 1722, Kanslergården was acquired by Abraham Lehn. Lehn resided in the Lehn House in Christianshavn and did therefore never himself live in the building. It was instead let out to foreign envoys. The mansion was completely destroyed in the Copenhagen Fire of 1728, together with most of the other buildings in Klædebo Quarter. In summer 1734, Lehn sold the fire site to master builder Oluf Lange.[3] Lange divided the large property into 10 parcels of land towards Skidenstræde and another three parcels of land towards Store Kannikestræde. In September 1736, he sold the southwestern parcel of land in Store Kannikestræde (Now Store Kannikestræde 10) to Sevastian Lier. Lier had earlier the same year also bought a property on the other side of the block from him (now Krystalgade 5). Lier was at the same time granted a 3,500 rigsdaler loan from Lange with security in the buildings that he was going to construct on the site. In December, Lier also acquired the two adjacent properties in Store Kannikestræde (now Store Kannikestræde 6–8). Very little is known about Lier. He is in different sources referred to as studiosus, master builder (Ramsing) and "commissioner".In the 1730s, he was involved in a considerable number of construction projects. The three buildings were completed around a year later. As part of their contract with Lange, Lier was obliged to have the buildings insured by the recently established Kjøbenhavns Brandforsikring. On 30 December 1737, Lier insured the northeastern building for 4,000 rigsdaler. On 23 December 1737, he had obtained a 3,000 rigsdaler loan from Sophie Haxthausen with security in the building. He was initially himself a resident of the building, although he later moved to Store Kannikestræde 10. Both Lier and Lange disappeared from the sources around 1740–41.[3]

No. 45 is seen on a detail from Christian Gedde's map of Klædebo Quarter, 1757.

The property now known as Store Kannikestræde 6 was later acquired by chief justice in Borgerretten Truels Ortwed. His property was listed in the new cadastre of 1756 as No. 46 in Klædebo Quarter.[1] The two adjacent buildings in Store Kannikestræde was listed as No. 45 (Store Kannikestræde 8) and No. 44 (Store Kannikestræde 10).[1] In 1771, Ortwed was appointed as judge at Hof- og Stadsretten.[4]

Truels Ortwed was still the owner of the building at the 1787 census. He lived there with his employee Johan Christian Thønnesen, a maid, a male servant and a female cook.[5]

Architecture[edit]

Store Kannikestræde 6.

Store Kannikestræde 6 is constructed with three storeys over a walk-out basement. The third storey was added in the 1790s, replacing a five-bay gabled wall dormer similar to the one at Store Kannikestrlde 10. A green-painted gate with fanlight is located in the bay furthest to the right. The keystone features a cartouche with a no longer readable monogram. The basement entrance is located in the third bay from the left. The rear side of the building was originally constructed with timber framing but has later been reconstructed in brick. The pitched roof is pierced by a robust chimney. The roof features three dormer windows towards the street and another three towards the yard.[14]

A four-bays-long side wing extends from the rear side of the building along the east side of a central courtyard. It is connected to a five-bays-wide side wing. A just one-bays-long side wing extends from the rear sid4e of the rear wing along the east side of a small light well. The side wing and rear wing are partly constructed with timber framing.[14]

Todau[edit]

The property is today owned by E/F Store Kannikestræde 6, It contains a single condominium on each floor of the front wing and office space in the rear wing.
