In the late 17th century, the site was part of a much larger property. This property was known as No. 27 in St. Ann's East Quarter (Sankt Annæ Øster Kvarter) in 1689 and owned by admiral Marcus Rodsten. The current building on the site was constructed with two storeys some time between 1716 and 1735 for merchant Peder Aarøe. In the new cadastre of 1756, it was listed as No. 81. It was owned by captain Niels Olsen Hielte at the time. [1] Niels Olsen Hielte captained a number of expeditions to China for the Danish Asiatic Company. On his return to Copenhagen in 1763 with the frigate Prins Friderich, he was accompanied by a young Javanese fisherman whom they had rescued after his boat had wrecked, and Hielte later took care of him. The young man was Frederik Christian and later assumed the family name Bendahl after his native village of Benda. He later settled in Nykøbing S, where he bought a house, married and had seven children. [2]

At the time of the 1787 census, No. 81 was home to three households. Maria Clara Kreydahl, a 36-year-old widow and the owner of the property, resided there with her seven-year-old son Kiel Fridrich Kreydahl, her 26-year-old sister Karen M.Rindm, the poor 13-year-old girl Jacobine Rønning and two maids. [3] Peder Krag, the 31-year-old captain of a chinaman, resided in another apartment with his 21-year-old wife Johanna, their one-year-old son Jens Krag, his 26-year-old brother Christian Krag (a first mate, styrmand) and two maids. [4] Eilert J.Wandahl, a beer seller (øltapper), resided in the basement with his wife Berte Gustavis, one maid and two lodgers. Both of the lodgers were sailors. [5]

The property was expanded with two additional storeys in 1793. [1]
