Garrison Church, Copenhagen
Garnison Church, Copenhagen The Garnison Church () is a church at Sankt Annæ Plads in Copenhagen, Denmark. The Baroque church was erected as a church primarily intended for military personnel stationed in the city. History In the 17th century, Copenhagen had become home to a sizeable garrison. A military church was built at Kastellet in 1670, but its modest size only allowed it to serve the personnel at the fortress. The rest of the troops in the city had to use Church of Holmen, a former anchor forge which had been converted into a naval church in 1619. When Sophie Amalienborg burned down in 1689, its chapel survived the flames and was subsequently put at the disposal of the Army. However, the small building which had been built for members of the royal court only served as a temporary solution. King Christian V therefore provided a tract of land at Dronningens Tværgade for the construction of a new church for the Army and military engineer Georg Philip Müller (ca 1684-ca ...

Staldmestergården
Staldmestergården (English: Stable Master's House) is a historic building overlooking Frederiksholm Canal on Slotsholmen, between Christiansborg Rising Grounds and Christian IV's Brewhouse, in central Copenhagen, Denmark. Originally built for the avener and other administration personnel of the royal stables, it now houses the Ministries of Education and Ecclesiastical Affairs.

One of the institutions which in 1910 moved in was the ''Kultus Ministry''.
