Brix Michgell, also Brix Michael (born before 1612, died after 1627), was a carpenter and wood carver who was active in Roskilde on the Danish island of Zealand. He is remembered for his intricately carved pulpits and altarpieces in the area.[1]
Michgell, who had probably immigrated from the north of Germany, was registered as a master carpenter in Roskilde in 1612 but he had already completed work on a cupboard and a chest. In 1609, he had also created the pulpit in Smørum Church, apparently with the assistance of Anders Nielsen Hatt.[2] He went on to produce at least 13 pulpits and six altarpieces. His most prized work is a cupboard in the National Museum. He worked in the German Renaissance style as practised in the Copenhagen area by Statius Otto from Lüneburg.[3]
