A Modern Tribute to Historic Architecture in Carlsberg City District

The Mineral Water House is a modern and striking building constructed as an extension of the historic Mineral Water Factory, which is now a listed heritage site.

Originally built between 1920 and 1927, the factory was designed by architect Carl Harild, who also created several other listed buildings in the former brewery district, including the Machine Central and the Boiler Hall.

The new extension, completed in 2020, was designed by renowned architect Dorte Mandrup. The building comprises retail spaces, offices, and residential units.

Located in the heart of the Carlsberg City District, the property is close to the iconic Hanging Gardens, the Boiler Hall, and J.C. Jacobsen’s Garden—a perfect spot for a walk-and-talk meeting or a relaxing break. For 160 years, this beautiful garden was closed to the public, but today visitors can enjoy its trees, flowers, lake, and protected architecture.

This location offers a unique blend of historical significance and contemporary design.

THE LEASE

The unit is a large and spacious retail space featuring approximately 4-meter-high ceilings and 16 expansive floor-to-ceiling windows facing the square and the Carlsberg City District.

This space is ideally suited for customer-facing businesses such as restaurants or retail stores. Its generous dimensions and high visibility make it a highly attractive leasing opportunity.

The unit is delivered as a ‘grey box’, offering tenants a unique opportunity to design and customize the interior layout to perfectly reflect their brand identity.

THE AREA

The Mineral Water House is located in the heart of the Carlsberg City District – an area that has, in recent years, evolved into an attractive destination for both tenants and visitors.

Carlsberg City offers a unique blend of modern urban living and historical charm. The area features everything from world-class gastronomy and exclusive spa experiences to grocery stores and an international school. Accessibility is excellent, whether by bike, metro, or S-train – just 14 minutes from Copenhagen Central Station. Additionally, the district provides ample parking with over 3,000 spaces across 11 parking facilities.

The neighborhood is home to a wide array of vibrant shops, cafés, and restaurants. Many well-known brands have already established a presence here, with more on the way.

At the center of the district lies Franciska Clausen’s Square, surrounded by the listed heritage buildings Maskincentralen and Kedelhallen. Designed as a cultural focal point, the square is intended to host activities throughout the day and evening. The new performing arts center, Dansehallerne, along with the cultural venue Maskincentralen, brings life and energy to the area—making it an ideal location for tenants seeking a dynamic and inspiring environment.
