Brigadér Halling House

The Brigadér Halling House is a listed property at Lille Strandstræde 14 in central Copenhagen, Denmark.

It takes its name from William Halling, a Dane who acquired the building shortly after returning to Denmark from India where he had served in the British army.

After just two years, Brinch-Seidelin sold the property to Vice Admiral Hans Henrik Rømeling (1707–1775).

The property was acquired in 1772 by William von Halling, who had just returned from India where he had been in British military service.

Johanna Kantrup resided in the building with her daughter Inger Sophia Elisbeth, a maid, a female cook, three brewery workers and a coachman.

[4] Johannes Hendrick Mincke, a 33-year-old student, resided in another dwelling with his wife Ulrica Georgina, their one-year-old son Carl, a male servant, a caretaker, a maid, a wet nurse and a female cook.

[8] Hans Nielsen Kellerman (1739–1807), a ship broker, resided in the building with his wife Margrethe née Teilman (1739-1801), two unmarried women (aged 18 and 59), a male servant, a maid and a female cook.

Johann Christian Ryge, an actor at the Royal Danish Theatre, resided on the ground floor with his wife Charlotte Betzy née Anthon, their four children (aged one to seven), two children from Ryge's first marriage (aged 18 and 21) and two maids.

[10] Wilhelm Nielsen, a royal stableman (rideknægt), resided in another dwelling on the ground floor (den øverste Deel af Stuen paa) with his wife Catharine Marie née Ziegler.

[11] Hans Nicolai Soelberg, a coachman (hyrekusk), resided in a third dwelling on the ground floor together with two servants.

[12] Jens Jacob Ellebye, a royal workman (Kongelige Arbeidsmand paa Palaiet), resided in the basement with his wife Birthe Kirstine (née Rasmussen) and their 11-year-old daughter.

Niels Nielsen Lund, the proprietor of a tavern in the basement, resided in the associated dwelling with his wife Anne Jensen, their six children (aged five to 13) and four lodgers.

Gotthilf Ferdinand Lassen (1903–1860), a former inspector at the Royal Danish Theatre and a historical collector, resided with a maid on the first floor.

[15] Niels Jørgen Jensen, an ironmonger, was now residing in the basement with his wife Maren Kirstine Kondrup, their one-year-old son and a lodger.

[clarification needed] He was the owner of C. Bogn & Co., a haullier's business at Købmagergade 26 with roots back to 779.

This has been solved by placing the gate and an undecorated window in a slightly recessed portion of the median risalit.
