==History==
Grønlandske Handels Plads is part of the area that Andreas Bjørn reclaimed in the 1730s for his his shipyard which became known as Bjørnholm ("Bjørn's Isle"). In 1747, Bjørn sold the northern part of the site to Det almindelige Handelsselskab ("The General Trading Company") which in 1750 obtained a monopoly on trade on Greenland. From 1763 the company was also responsible for trade on Iceland, Finmarken and the Faroe Islands. Master builder Johan Christian Conradi was commissioned to build a large warehouse for the company which was completed in 1767. Conradi had led the construction of the Eigtved Warehouse for the Danish Asia Company at Asiatisk Plads in 1750 and later also been involved in the construction of several other large warehouses in Christianshavn either as a builder or architect. The new warehouse was initially known as the Icelandic Warehouse and later as the Greenlandic Warehouse.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sag: Grønlandske Handels Plads )〕
In 1774, Det Almindelige Handelsselskab was dissolved and the Royal Greenland Trading Department came under direct control of the state. The southern part of Grønlandske Handels Plads was sold to Hans Krøyer in 1802 and became known as Krøyers Plads. Krøyers Plads was reacquired by Royal Greenland in 1938.ref name=Fredning/> The company sold the area to the Danish state in 1975 but continued to use the buildings until 1980. The buildings were left empty for a couple of years but then used by first the Danish Customs and Taxes Authority and then Danish Polar Center and University of Copenhagen's Arctic Institute and Institute of Eskimology.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Nordatlanten skal samles i ét hus )〕
