Osten House
By Seeker
Osten House, a stunning Rococo-style townhouse located at Stengade 83 in Helsingør, Denmark, is a historical gem listed as a protected building since 1918. Originally constructed in 1769-1770 by Otto Frantz von der Osten, the house has a rich history involving notable figures such as customs inspectors and merchants. It has changed hands multiple times, with significant ownership by the Wright family in 1901, who established a fuel company. The building is also culturally significant, featuring in Karen Blixen's short story 'The Supper at Elsinore,' making it a fascinating stop for tourists and researchers interested in Danish history and literature.
