Rosenkilde was born at Stavanger in Rogaland, Norway. He was the son of Børge Henriksen Rosenkilde (1734-1820) and his second wife Anna Vilhelmine Nyrop (1755-1827). He was born into a merchant family and received his education in trade at Hamburg, Germany. He took over his father's business interest in 1805.
