The house was built in 1769 for master stonemason Johan Friedrich Lohmann.[1] Born in Hannover, Lohmann had come to Denmark in c. 1760 where he initially worked for royal stone carver Jacob Fortling. He became licensed as a master stone carver in 1766. Lohman worked at the Royal Frederik Stone Quarry on Bornholm from 1779 but died the following year.[2]
