History

17th and 18th centuries

The property belonged to wine merchant (vintapper) Evert Funch from at least the 1670s. In 1674, it passed to his grandson Evert Funch the Tounger. His property was listed in Copenhagen's first cadastre of 1689 as No. 11 in Strand Quarter. His widow Bodild kept it until her death. It was then sold at auction to Icelandic merchant Christian Jensen Abedsøe (deed issued 13 January 1713). His widow was later married to Icelandic merchant Christian Pedersen Borup. He was the owner of the property until at least 1728.[1]
