Kronprinsessegade 22–24 are two Neoclassical apartment buildings overlooking Rosenborg Castle Gardens in central Copenhagen, Denmark. They were both constructed by master mason A. C. Wilcken (ca.1760-1816) to designs by Andreas Hallander in 1807–1808. They were listed on the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1918 (No. 22) and 1945 (No. 24). Notable former residents include the theologian and politician Henrik Nicolai Clausen (1793–1877), judge Frederik Lütken [da] (1808–1879) and physician Varl Lange. The latter operated a medical clinic at No. 22 from 1878 until his death in 1900.

Architecture

edit

Kronprinsessegade 22 is a five bays wide building constructed with four stories over a walk-out basement. The facade features a narrow cornice band above the ground floor and a dentillated cornice. The three central bays are slightly recessed on the three upper floors. The outer first-floor windows are accented with triangular pediments, rectangular depressions with blind ballusters beneath them and shadow joints along their sides. A green-painted gate topped by a fanlight is located in the bay furthest to the south. A rounded installation on the dentillated transom may once have featured a clock face. Access to the building's principal staircase is through a door situated in a deep barrel-vaulted niche in the northern wall of the gateway. The basement entrance is also located in the gateway. The pitched roof is clad in red tiles. It features three copper-clad dormer windows overlooking the park on the other side of the street.[26]

Kronprinsessegade 24 is also constructed with four stories over a walk-out basement but is just four bays wide. The facade features a cornice band above the ground floor and a dentillated cornice but has no other decorative details. The main entrance is located in the bay furthest to the north.
