Early history

The site was formerly part of a much larger property, listed in Copenhagen's first cadastre of 1689 as No. 113 in Rosenborg Quarter and owned by stiftsskriver Claus Toft at that time. The property was listed in the new cadastre of 1756 as No. 102 and was then owned by merchant Just Fabritius.^[1]

The property was listed in the new cadastre of 1806 as No. 221, It was owned by Franz Nachtegall at that time. His property was the following year destroyed in the British bombardment of the city. In 1818, No. 221 was divided into No. 221A and No. 221B. In 1825, No. 221V was again divided into No. 221B and No. 221C. In 1830, No. 221C was divided into No. 221 C and No. 221D. No. 221D is the property now known as Hauser Plads 16. The present building was constructed for distiller Ole Møller in 1830.^[1]

20th century

A haulier's business in the building was around the turn of the century taken over by Peter Frederiksen. In 1901, he and his wife Augusta opened a restaurant in the basement. The restaurant—which was then called Café Hauser Plads—had been founded by his parents Frederik and Marie Henriksen on the other side of the square (in the basement of No 11, now demolished) back in 1877. Peter Frederiksen had returned to Hauser Plads to assist his mother in the restaurant after his father's death in the early 1880s. The restaurant catered to the many farmers and coalers who visited the city on market day to sell their produce and charcoal on nearby Kultorvet and the city's other marketplaces, leaving their carriages and horses on Hauser Plads.^[7]

The property was home to 43 residents at the time of the 1906 census. Peter and Augusta Frederiksen resided on the first floor with their six children (aged five to 16), two maids and one lodger (stablemaster). Their apartment was located above the restaurant. A spiral staircase, disguised as a cupboard, provided direct access between the restaurant and the apartment.^[8] Carl Levisohn (1857-1938), owner of a leather business founded by his father in 1867 (the company was as I. & O. Lisfeldt based at Gammel Mønt 39 in 1950),^[9] resided in the building with his wife Martha Ingeborg Levisohn, their two-year-old son Jens Bernhard Vilhelm Levisohn and one maid.

The name of the restaurant was subsequently changed from Café Hauser Plads to Restaurant Schønnemann.^[8]

C. J. F. Rasch's Eftf., an almost 100 years old book binding business, now specializing in binding of protocols, relocated to the building in the 1910s. The firm was founded by Christian Johan Rasch back in 1924. It was from 1855 continued by his son Julius Ferdinand Rasch (f1825-1906) and his death by the son's widow Flemine Cecilie Rasch (née Lange). In 1910, it was still locaed at Gråbrødretorv 5. In 1914, it was taken over by H. A. Schjerning (1882-1949), a long_term employee, who was probably the one who moved the firm to Hauser Plads. He also expanded the operations with a stationery. The firm existed until at least 1950 and was then based at Forhåbningsholms Alle 2–4.^[11]
