The current building was constructed in 1730–1732 for cobbersmith and manufacturer Povl Badstuber.[1] Povl Badstuber had to sell the house when he went bankrupt after a few years.

In the new cadastre of 1756m the property was listed as No. 38. It was by then owned by professor Christian Gottlieb Kratzenstein.

At the time of the 1787 census, No. 37 was home to just two households. Hermann Hinrich Könemann (1746-1822),, a secretary of the Supreme Court, resided in the building with his wife Barbra Catrine Schønheyder, their four daughters (aged one to six), a male servant, a caretaker, a wet nurse and two maids.[2] Henriette Margrethe van Deurs (née Kønemann), the 40-year-old widow of Jean Christopher van Deurs, resided in the building with her two sons (aged 13 and 18) and two maids.[3]

Herman Henneh Køneman was by 1801 still residing in the building.[4] Dorthe Hansen, a 54-year-old widow, resided in the building with her 24-year-old daughter and a maid.[5] Cathrine Marie Honzem a 40-year-old widow, resided in the building with a 11-year-old son and one maid.[6]

In the new cadastre of 1806, the property was listed as No. 31. It was by then still owned by Kønneman.

At the time of the 1840 census, No. 31 was home to four households. Frederik Thomsen, a judge at the Copenhagen Police Court, resided on the ground floor with his wife Elisabeth Nicoline Thomsen (née Malling), their 12-year-old daughter Christiane Thomsen and one maid.[7] Marie Chatrine Lund, widow of merchant (grosserer) Jens Lund, resided on the first floor with two unmarried daughters (aged 20 and 24), a housekeeper, one male servant and two maids.[8] Peder Malling, an architect and professor at the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts, resided on the second floor with the 52-year-old widow Frederikke Amalia Giersing, Giersing's seven children (aged nine to 25), one lodger and one maid.[9] Jens Petersen, the concierge, resided in the basement with his wife Cecilie Marie Petersen and their four children (aged one to 14).[10]
