Cort Adeler House

The Cort Adeler House, located at Strandgade 22 in Copenhagen's Christianshavn neighbourhood, is a historic property named after Admiral Cort Adeler, who resided there in the 17th century. Originally built around 1630 for Count Jens Sparre, the house underwent significant renovations under Adeler's ownership. Over the centuries, it changed hands multiple times, housing various notable residents, including merchants and military officers. The architecture features a mansard roof and a side wing dating back to the 17th century. Today, the ground floor is occupied by designer Søren Le Schmidt, making it a blend of history and modern design, appealing to both tourists and researchers interested in Copenhagen's rich past.
