Københavns Skipperforening (lit. "Copenhagen Skippers' Association"), formerly Københavns Skipperlav (Copenhagen Skippers' Guild), is an organisation for skippers in Copenhagen, Denmark. Its former headquarters at the corner of Bremerholm and Holmens Kanal, a brick building from 1796, was listed on the Danish registry of protected buildings and places by the Danish Heritage Agency on 23 December 1918 and was sold to Danske Bank in 1930. The association is now based at Australiensgade in Østerbro.
