context_page_description: Gernersgade is a street in the Nyboder Quarter of central Copenhagen, Denmark. It runs from Store Kongensgade in the southeast to Rigensgade in the northwest and is closed to through traffic at Sankt Pauls Plads.
context_section_description: The Nyboder houses that now line part of the street do not date from Christian IV's time but are later models. The yellow, two-storey terrace at No. 2-18 is an example of the houses that now dominate the quarter. They date from the 1850s and were designed by Philip de Lange. The terraces at No. 17-31 and No. 24-44 are examples of the so-called Grey Rows that were built between 1886 and 1893 to design by Olaf Schmidt with inspiration from Arbejdernes Byggeforening's building society houses.
   
  Bygningskulturens Hus, a centre dedicated to historic architecture, is located at the corner with Borgergade. The building was originally constructed as a girls' school for daughters of personnel of the Royal Danish Navy but was later converted into a naval cadet academy and then army barracks. Realea (now Realdania Byg) acquired the building in 2003 and it was subsequently put through a comprehensive refurbishment which adapted it to its current use.
  The building at the opposite corner with Borgergade (Borgergade 144) is from 1854 and was possibly designed by Peter Christoph Hagemann. It was listed on the Danish Registry of Protected Buildings and Places in 1978.
  
  The townhouses at No. 49-67 were built in 1870-72 by Frederik Bøttger for Arbejdernes Byggeforening to provide affordable, good-quality homes for workers at the B&W shipyard. More of the same type of houses are located in the neighbouring street Krussemyntegade.  St. Paul's Church, whose chancel faces Gernersgade, is from 1877 and was designed by Johannes Emil Gnudtzmann.
