History

Kronprinsessegade 16 was built in 1807 as one of five properties at Kronprinsessegade Np. 10-18 that were built by master builder Johan Martin Quist. The poet Jens Baggesen was a resident in the building in the mid-1810s. The writer and educator Athalia Schwartz (1821-1871) lived in the building from 1851 to 853.[1]

Architecture

The building consists of four storeys over a high cellar and is five bays wide. Two triangular pediments are located over the outer windows on the second floor. The Mansard roof with three dormers dates from 1902–1908. A five-storey side wing projects from the rear side of the building. The complex was listed on the Danish registry of protected buildings and places on 14 April 1945.[2]
