Østergade 13 is a Historicist building complex situated on the shopping street Strøget in central Copenhagen, Denmark. Originally two separate 18th-century buildings, three and four bays wide, respectively, Østergade 13 owes its current appearance to a renovation in 1856. Lille Kongensgade 12–14 on the other side of the block is also part of the property (since 1902). Carl Antonelli's plaster workshop—known for its reproductions of many of Bertel Thorvaldsen's works—was based on the site from c. 1820 to 1854. Kunstforeningen was also based in the building from 1834 to 1854. Other notable former residents include the educator Carl Mariboe, economist and writer Oluf Christian Olufsen (1764–1827) and businessman Isaac Wulff Heyman. The property is today owned by Odense-based Barfoed Group.

Detail of the main entrance.

Østergade 13 originates in two separate buildings. The western building was constructed prior to the Copenhagen Fire of 1728. It was later subject to alterations in 1773. The eastern building was constructed before 1749. The two buildings were both adapted in the 1830s and finally to their present appearance in 1856.
