History
edit18th century
editThe property was listed as No. 49 in Snaren's Quarter in Copenhagen's first cadastre of 1689. It was at that time owned by tailor Morten Jensen. The current building on the site was constructed in 1730–1734 for lawyer Andreas Bruun. The property was listed as No. 43 in the new cadastre of 1756 and was then owned by Bruun's widow.[1]
At the time of the 1787 census, the building was home to 17 residents in four households. Lauritz Reitzer, a royal lackey, resided in one of the apartments with his wife Magrethe Sofie Jæger, his father-in-law Christian Jæger and two maids.[2] Karen Lund Klingberg, a 54-year-old widow with a pension from Enkekassen, resided in the building with her son Christian Klingberg (1876–1821), who would later become a prominent Supreme Court attorney, and one maid.[3] Her late husband Jacob Klingberg had served as notarius publicus in the Danish West Indies. The third household consisted of plumber and fireman Jacob Hansen Bennefeet and his wife Anne Kirstine.[4] Jens Ibsen, another royal lackey, resided in the building with his wife Dorthe Catrine, their two children (aged one and eight), an eight-year-old boy who lived with them after orders from the Crown Prince, a wet nurse and a maid.[5]

Clementsen's property was listed in the new cadastre of 1806 as No. 41 in Snaren's Quarter. The military officer Jacob Elias Holm (1776-1842) resided in the building with his mother from at least 1818. They still lived there when his mother died in 1831.

Just Hübner, a singer at the Royal Danish Theatre, resided on the first floor with his wife Fr. Magdalene Hübner and two maids. Christopher Schmidt, a Candidatus Philosoph., resided alone on the third floor.[11]

Architecture
editRådhusstræde 11 is constructed with four storeys over a walk-out basement. The plastered and white-painted facade is crowned by a gabled wall dormer with cornice returns in the full width of the building. An arched window in the gable was most likely originally topped by a pulley. The main entrance in the bay furthest to the left (north) is topped by a large transom window. The basement entrance in the bay furthest to the right (south) was until 1868 topped by a hood mould. The rear side of the building is also plastered and white-painted. A rear wing is located on the other side of the small courtyard. The building fronting the street was listed in the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1945 but the rear wing is not part of the heritage listing.[15]
Today
editThe building is currently owned by Flemming Hagemann A/S.
