Færøsk Pakhus (English: Faroese Warehouse) is a small warehouse building located at Frederiksholm Canal, on Slotsholmen, in Copenhagen, Denmark. It is now used by the Ministry of Education.

History

Faroese Warehouse was originally located on the other side of Frederiksholm Canal. It was used for trade with the Faroe Islands. However, Christian IV's Brewhouse on Slotsholmen was hit by fire in 1767 and due to its proximity to Copenhagen Castle, the royal residence, fear of future fires prompted the decision to move the royal brewery to the far side of the canal. Faroese Warehouse was then moved to its current location next to the old brewhouse which was rebuilt and put to other use. The new building was completed in 1772.[1]

Current use

The building now contains meeting rooms used by the Ministry of Education, based in nearby Staldmestergården, and the Ministry of Transportation.[1]

gollark: My main issue with it is:- JS is a wildly unsafe language (in different ways to C, at least) although TS partly fixes this. *Partly*- Hundreds of dependencies needed to do much. I recently interacted with someone on the internet who said this was a *good* thing, and talked about `is-number` being useful. They may be nsane.

gollark: Callbacks have been *mostly* obsoleted by promises, fortunately.

gollark: See, I avoid the hassle of PHP by writing web applications in Node.js, which has fun exciting things like asynchronousness with something like three different ways to write it (events, callbacks, promises, arguably generators), and 1000 dependencies per project.
