Valkendorfsgade 36, situated opposite the House of the Holy Ghost, off the shopping street Strøget is a Baroque style townhouse in the Old Town of Copenhagen, Denmark.
Jens Giødwad, a journalist and future editor of the newspaper Fædrelandet, was a resident of the building in the late 1830s.
[3] Rostrp's son, Kaspar Rostrup, an attorney, continued the business after his father's death, qualifying as a master joiner in 1866.
[5] The building was in its original form an example of one of the large version of Johan Cornelius Krieger's so-called fire house designs.
After the Great Fire of 1728, Krieger was instructed to create a number of generic designs which were to serve as inspiration for craftsmen in connection with the rebuilding of the city.
Valkendorfsgade 36 was then an eight bays widethree-storey building with a prominent gabled wall dormer.
The facade is decorated with four quoin lesenes supported by Fleur-de-lis ornaments at the transition between the raised cellar and ground floor.
The building's original cornice Is still seen between the third and fourth floor, highlighting the transition between the old and new part of the facade.
