History

edit

Christian IV constructed a canon foundry on the site in 1610.[1] It was later moved to a new building on Kongens Nytorv. On 31 May 1671, the property in Pilestræde was sold to stamped paper-manager Albert Heintz for 2,000 rigsdaler. His widow Magdalene Klingenberg kept the property after his death. Her property was listed in Copenhagen's first cadastre of 1689 as No. 95 in Købmager Quarter. The next owner was wine merchant Henrik Würner. In 1691, he sold the property to wine merchant Jochum Würger. The large property, upon the death of his widow, was divided into five smaller properties. The buildings on the site were all destroyed in the Copenhagen Fire of 1728. The building was later heightened with two storeys around 1780.[2]
