Historyedit
A countryhouse named Lille Lokkerup was in the beginning of the 18th century located at the site. It was in the late 1720s owned by Christian Koningh. A later owner, royal mint masterChristian Wieneken, renamed it Mariendal after his wife.
The property was in 1757 acquired by Philip de Lange. He demolished the buildings and constructed Store Mariendal on the Copenhagen side of the border in 1759 followed by Lille Mariendal on the Gentofte side of the border in 1764.[1]
Lange made the house available to the Spannjish envoy to Copenhagen. After Lange's death in 1881, it was sold in auction. The buyer was royal ropemaker Peter Applebye. The next owners were chief secretary F. Chr. Rosenkrantz, bank manager Johan Niklai Tetens, major-general Oxholm and silk merchant and local politician Johan Christian Lund. In 1872 most of the land wassold off in lots.[2] The jurist and credit union manager Ephraim Magdalus Møller purchased Store Mariendal in 1888.
Store Mariendal was in the late 1890s acquired by captain Knud Rasmussen and converted into a hotel, restaurant and music venue. It was in 1919 acquired by the businessman Carl Glad, He was the owner of the oil company L. C. Glad and two year later appointed as Austrian consul-general.[3] The main building was adapted by the architect Aage Rafn in 1928.
Glad's company went bankrupt in connection with the Great Crash of 1929. They had to sell both their properties and moved into an apartment in Bredgade.[4]
Store Mariendal was in 1977 purchased by Lejerbo and demolished. A housing estate by the same name with 121 apartments was completed at the site in 1970.
