Headquarters

Close to the sea

NORDEN's headquartes is located at 49, Amaliegade in Copenhagen, close to the sea in a domicile with a long history. The house was built in 1790 by master carpenter Andreas Hallander. The characteristic facade relief is the work of the worldfamous Danish sculptor Bertel Thorvaldsen. In 1892, the year when Peter de Nully Brown succeeded the Company’s founder, Mads Christian Holm, as shipowner, NORDEN took a lease on 49, Amaliegade. In 1916, NORDEN purchased the property.

Since 1990, NORDEN has seen a tremendously growth in activities as well as in the number of employees at the headquarters, and NORDEN has therefore had to carry out comprehensive conversions and extensions of the office facilities and also rent space in the adjacent buildings.

The most recent conversion was in the autumn of 2003, when meeting rooms, a conference room, a large staff cafeteria and a fitness room were added in the basement. In all, NORDEN has almost 3,000 square metres at its disposal at 49, Amaliegade, of which 1,600 square metres is in NORDEN’s own property. More 

Moving to new headquarters in 2008

After 116 years in the historical stately building at 49, Amaliegade near Amalienborg Palace and the Port of Copenhagen, NORDEN’s headquarters will in 2008 move even closer to the waterfront to new, lighter and airier surroundings with better staff facilities and – most importantly – far more space.

NORDEN’s new headquarters will be located in another historical building called the Brewhouse in Tuborg Harbour at Strandvejen in Hellerup, north of Copenhagen. More
