Algade 5 was built in the late 1800s and proudly reflects its Stevns heritage. The walls are made in part from local chalkstone, giving the building a distinctive warmth and connection to the landscape.
A Piece of Danish Crime History
In 1931, the notorious burglar “The Drilling X” attempted to break into the building’s newly installed safe. His attempt failed and instead marked the beginning of his downfall. Today, the original vault serves as our wine cellar.
From Past to Present
Since 2008, Café Algade has called this historic space home. We’ve worked hard to preserve the building’s unique character, where the past and present meet in a setting filled with warmth, stories, and a love of good living.
