Skindergade 38/Dyrkøb 5 is a four-winged complex of 19th-century buildings with a nine-bays-long facade on Skindergade (No. 38) and a 10-bays-long facade on Dyrkøb, opposite the Church of Our Lady, in the Old Town of Copenhagen, Denmark. The two buildings fronting the streets were listed in the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1951. The two side wings—which attach them to each other along each their side of a central courtyard—are not part of the heritage listing. From October 1852 until his death three years later, Søren Kierkegaard was a lodger in the apartment on the first floor (towards Skindergade). Other notable former residents include the politicians Janus Lauritz Andreas Kolderup-Rosenvinge, Orla Lehmann and Valdemar Rudolph von Raasløff.[1]
