Galleri K

Galleri K, formerly known as Crome & Goldschmidt and later as Cityarkaden, is a shopping arcade situated on Strøget in central Copenhagen, Denmark. Completed in 1901, it occupies an entire block between Østergade (No. 32-34), Antonigade 2-6), Pilestræde (No. 10-14) and Kristen Bernikows Gade (No. 1).

A large property on the site was listed in Copenhagen first cadastre from 1689 listed as No. 45 in Købmager Quarter. It belonged to Dorthe Sørensen, widow of renteskriver Rasmus Sørensen. In the new cadastre of 1756, it was again listed as No. 45 in Købmager Quarter. It was at that time owned by restaurateur Johan Georg Egner.

In 1789, No. 45 was sold at auctionto merchant Johann August Bindseil. In 1785, he had sold a small property on Fortunstræde and since then lived in rented premises at Nyhavn 17. He was originally from Eisleben. He had worked as a ship's surgeon for the Danish Asiatic Company before settling as a merchant in Copenhagen. He was later licensed as a wholesaler.

The musician and composer Friedrich Ludwig Æmilius Kunzen was a resident in the building from 1807 to 1810.

From 1809 until 1832, Adressekontoret was based in the courtyard to the left. During this period, the building was also referred to as "Adresseavisens Gaard". ("Adresseavisen's Building"). Adressekontoret published Adressecontorets Efterretninger ("Adresseavisen"). Adressekontoret's previous location was at Nytorv No. 8 (now Nytorv 11). /

On 6 July 1810, Jens Jetsmark was engaged as manager of Adressekontoret and editor of Adresseavisen. Jetsmark was married to Bindseil's daughter Augusta Rosalie Bindseil. In 1825, Jelsmark in stalled Denmark's first high-speed printing press in the building. In 1843 (lease signed 11 November 1842), Adressekontoret relocated to significantly larger premises at Vimmelskaftet No. 137 (now Vimmelsaftet 43).

Bindseil died on 18 October 1822. His wife Dorothea née Mentz died on 25 November 1825. Vildmanden was subsequently sold at public auction. It was acquired by their son Carl August Bindseil (died: 2 March 1928).il

On 21 November 1851, Bindseil's garden was let out to his neighbour Antoinne Gamél for an extension of his coffee roastery.
