An Italian Renaissance Palace Built for Care – Stories Behind the Museum of Copenhagen’s Beautiful Building

Discover the intriguing history of the building now home to the Museum of Copenhagen. Constructed in 1893–94 as a guardianship office, it was where the state managed the finances of legally incapacitated women and children.
Architect H.J. Holm drew strong inspiration from the Italian Renaissance but also incorporated modern styles of the late 19th century, including the popular Jugendstil (Art Nouveau). The building reflects Holm’s high standards for quality materials and craftsmanship, alongside his practical approach to its functions. Inside, you’ll find colorful decorated ceilings, stained glass windows, ornate railings, and a central heating system.

DAN:

Hør de spændende fortællinger om bygningen, der i dag huser Københavns Museum. Det blev i 1893-94 opført som overformynderi – et sted, hvor staten administrerede umyndige kvinder og børns formuer.
Arkitekten H.J. Holm var stærk inspireret af italiensk renæssance. I slutningen af 1800-tallet var dette dog ikke nok for en moderne arkitekt, og Holm tilføjede referencer til århundredeskiftets moderne stil og ikke mindst tidens helt hotte ”jugendstil” viser flere steder sit ansigt. Endelig bærer bygningen præg af Holms høje kvalitetskrav til materialer og håndværk ligesom han personlige, praktiske tilgang til husets funktioner. Her er således farverigt dekorerede lofter, glasmalerier, snørklede gelændere og centralvarmeanlæg.
