Kronborg Rifle Factory closed in 1870. Its premises were sold to J.W. Saxtorph of Rungstedgaard. He sold it to a consortium in 1873. One of the members of the consortium was destiller Jens Levin Tvede.[1] The consortium founded Hellebæk Textile Factory on 12 April 1873 under the name Hellebæk Klæ­de- og Tæppefabrik. It was expanded with a cotton mill at Bondedammen in 1877.[2] The factory closed in 1977.[3]
