Rolighed, meaning "tranquility", was originally a large wooden house built in 1794 for the Norwegian civil servant Carsten Anker. In 1855, the house was acquired by Ludvig Grøn, owner of Det Grønske Handelshus, Copenhagen's first department store. The house remained in the hands of his family until 1958. The current ahouse is from 1827. It is now owned by [A.P. Møller-Mærsk]] and used as a conference centre.
