About: Kompagnistræde 10

Kompagnistræde 10 is a Neoclassical property situated at the corner of Kompagnistræde and Badstuestræde in the Old Town of Copenhagen, Denmark. A bakery was operated on the site from at least the 17th century until the late 19th century. Like many of the other buildings in the area, the current building was constructed as part of the rebuilding of the city following the Copenhagen Fire of 1795. A gilded relief of a kringle above a door in the courtyard bears testament to the former use of the property. The entire complex was listed in the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1949. Former residents include orientalist and composer Christian Julius Hansen.
