History
Site history, 1689–1805
The site was formerly made up of two smaller properties. The northern one was listed in Copenhagen's first cadastre of 1689 as No. 1762 in East Quarter and belonged to tailor Johan Christoffer at that time. The southern property was listed as No. 173 and belonged to magister Statius Koch.
The two properties were listed in the new cadastre of 1756 as No. 214 (old No. 182) and No. 215 (old No. 183) in the East Quarterm both owned by baker Thomas Johansen Seyer.
Sundorph and the new building
The buildings on the site were destroyed uin the Copenhagen Fire of 1795, together with most of the other buildings in the area. The present warehouse on the site was constructed in 1797 for the widow Mette Christine Sundorph.[1] She was the owner of Mette Christine sal. Sundorphs Enke & Co. ("Metta Christine late Sundorph's Widow & Co.), a company which she had taken over after her second husband's death in 1794. Its premises had been completely destroyed in the Copenhagen Fire of 1795 and it therefore had to be operated from intermistic premises on Slotsholmen until the Sundorph House at Ved Stranden 10 and the warehouse in Admiralgade were completed in 1797.
20th century
The building was listed on the Danish registry of protected buildings and places by the Danish Heritage Agency on 5 March 1945.[2] It was renovated under supervision of the architect Kay Kørbing (born 1915) in 1969-1970. It was acquired by Bent Fabricius-Bjerre in 1997 and then subject to another refurbishment.[3]
Architecture
The four-storey warehouse has a central row of large openings with wooden shutters tipped by a tall dormer with the remains of a hoist. To the rear is a three-storey, one-bay side wing and a three-storey, three-bay warehouse which both date from some time between 1797 and 1806.
Today
The building is owned by Bent Fabricius-Bjerre and his two sons through the real estate company Metorion. It contains a mixture of offices and apartments.
