Gammel Mønt (English: Old Mint) is a street in Copenhagen, Denmark, located just off Gothersgade, opposite Rosenborg Castle Garden.
In 1497, a community of Poor Clare nuns established the Monastery of St. Clare roughly at the junction of present day Gammel Mønt and Møntergade.[1] In 1541, after the Reformation, it came into use as the Royal Mint of Denmark. From 1575 to 1593 it was used as a church by a German congregation but then again as a mint until 1623 when the Royal Mint moved to Borgergade.
The property then became known as Gammel Mønt, Old Mint, and this name was transferred to the street which emerged between 1631 and 1650 as the former monastery gardens were built over.[2]
All except one of the houses on the south side of the street are today listed, tracing their history back to the time shortly after the Copenhagen Fire of 1728.
