Dahlerup Warehouse
officebuilding in Copenhagen
Dahlerups Pakhus (English: Dahlerup Warehouse), originally known as Pakhus 1 (English: Warehouse 1), is a former Warehouse situated on the west side of the Langelinie Pier, opposite the Middle Pier, in Copenhagen, Denmark. Designed by Vilhelm Dahlerup, from whom it now takes its name, it was built between 1892 and 1893.
History
The Dahlerup Warehouse was originally known as Warehouse 1 and built as part of the Freeport of Copenhagen which was constructed during the first half of the 1890s.
After the free port was closed the building remained in use as a warehouse for a while but then fell into disrepair and was left empty for almost 30 years.
In the 1990s it was thoroughly renovated and is now listed as a landmark.
The Dahlerup Warehouse today
The building now houses the Danish Business Authority, a government agency under the Ministry of Industry, Business and Financial Affairs.

Why this record matters
The subject matters to the general reference register because the source frames it as officebuilding in Copenhagen. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.
The citation trail is more important than the brevity of the summary: it shows where individual claims can be examined in context. The source revision retrieved here is dated Apr 30, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q5208885. Authority coordinates are 55.697, 12.600. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1892 and 1893.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
