History
[edit]Site history, 1578–1834
[edit]
The site was formerly part of two separate properties. The eastern of these properties was listed in Copenhagen's first cadastre of 1689 as No. 80 in Frimand's Quarter and was owned by klein smith Jens Pedersen at that time. It was listed in the new cadastre of 1756 as No. 68 and belonged to Johan Weltsin. It was listed in the new cadastre of 1806 as No. 39 and was owned by B. Johansen at the time.[1]
The western property was listed as No. 78 in 1689 and was the site of the Brewers' Guild House. It was known as No. 66 from 1756 and listed as No. 94 in the new cadastre of 1806. This property was divided into No. 94A and No. 94B in 1815.
No. 39 was divided into No. 39A and No. 39 B in 1825. No. 30 B was immediately merged with No. 94, No. 96 and No. 40 to form what is now Kehergade 1/Skindergade 10. No. 39A was immediately merged with No. 04B to form No. 39 and 94B (from 1953 simply referred to as No. 39).

Architecture
[edit]
Skindergade 21 is a three-winged complex constructed in brick with four storeys over a walk-out basement. The facade towards the street is plastered and painted grey on the ground floor. The transition to undressed red brick of the upper floors is marked by a belt course with a white-painted relief frieze and there is a modillionned cornice below the roof. The main entrance in the bay furthest to the left (east) is topped by a large transom window with coloured glass. The basement in the fourth bay has two two-bay display windows. The ground floor windows have substantial sills supported by corbels. The roof ridge is pierced by a chimney and it features three dormer windows towards the street.[20]
The complex occupies an irregularly shaped site. A short perpendicular wing, with two diagonal bays towards the yard, attaches the main wing to a short rear wing. The façades facing the yard are plastered yellow on the ground floor and iron vitriol yellow on the upper floors. These secondary wings have a monopitched red tile roof pierced by a substantial kitchen chimney.[20]
Today
[edit]Skindergade is currently owned by E/F Skindergade 21.[1] It contains a retail space in the basement and one condominium on each of the upper floors.
