Frederiksholm Brickworks

In 1795, Kongens Enghave was divided into 22 estates and sold to wealthy citizens from Copenhagen.

They had made a fortune on the construction of apartment buildings in the new districts outside Copenhagen's old fortifications (Vesterbro, Nørrebro, Østerbro).

This had made them aware of the economic potential in having a large brickworks close to Copenhagen.

In 1875, Julius Køhler left the company to focus on his work as a master mason and developer.

The large building complex comprised housing for around 150 workers and stabling for 80 horses.
