Global InformationKunstnerhjemmet information
Kunstnerhjemmet (lit. "The Artists' Home") on Gothersgade, opposite the Botanical Garden, in Copenhagen, Denmark, was built in the 1870s to provide affordable accommodation and studio facilities for artists. Founded at the initiative of Ferdinand Meldahl, the association behind its construction later also acquired a building on nearby Bartolinsgade. The apartments in the two buildings are open to young, emerging artists as well as aging ones and their widows.
