History[]

18th century[]

No. 80 and No. 81 seen on Gedde's district map of Snaren's Quarter from 1757

The site was in the late 17th century made up of two separate properties. One of them was as No. 94: in Snaren's Quarter (Snarens Kvarter) owned by shoemaker Iver Jørgensen. The other one was as No. 95. owned by Anders Jonsen's widow.

The old No. 94 was by 1756 as No 80 owned by shoemaker Mathias Svane, The old No. 95 was as No. 81 owned by tailor Niels Nielsen

The two properties were together with most of the other buildings in the area destroyed in the Copenhagen Fire of 1795 and subsequently merged into a single property.[1]

The current building on the site was constructed in 1796-1798 for master carpenter Andreas Brendstrup.

10th century[]

The property was in the new cadastre of 1806 listed as No. 131 and was by then owned by tailor Johan Carl Drevsen.[1]

At the time of the 1840 census, N. 131 was home to a total of 29 people.[2] The now 80-year-old Drewsen was residing in one of the two ground floor apartments with his wife, two unmarried daughters and two lodgers.[3] The other ground floor apartment was occupied by a beer vendor (øltapper), Peter Trasborg, who lived there with his family, staff and lodgers.[4] Pierre von Røepstorff (1798-1857), a decommissioned army captain who had served in Tranquebar, was residing with his wife, three children and a maid in the apartment on the first floor.[5] Rudolph Meyer a member of the Royal Danish Orchestra, was residing on the second floor with his wife, five children and a maid.[6]

With the introduction of house numbering by street in Copenhagen in 1859 (as opposed to plot numbers by district)), No. 131 became No. 7. The property was at the census the following year home to a total of 25 people.[7] Carl Ludvig Hansen , a wine merchant, was residing with his wife, four children and three maids on the first floor.[8]

Henning Matzen (1840-1910), who had recently been appointed as orpdesspr of law at the University of Copenhagen, resided in the ground floor apartment in the years from 1871. The composer and organist Johan Christian Gebauer (1808-1884) was among the residents in the years around 1881.[9]

Ove Rode's and 's newspaper København was from 1890 published from its premises on the first floor. It was in 1892 sold to Per Brøndum Scavenius. People who wrote for the newspaper while it was based in Badstuestræde include Helge Rode, Viggo Stuckenberg, Gustav Wied, , Carl Ewald, , Gustav Esmann and Sophus Claussen.[9]

The building was in 2008 owned by the Danish Nurses' Organization.[1]

The building consists of three storeys over a raised cellar. The main entrance is topped by a transom window. Between the three central windows of the second and third storeys is a Meander frieze. A three-bay perpendicular side wing extends from the rear side of the building. The property was listed in the Danish registry of protected buildings and places in 1953.[10]

Badstuen, a combined coffee shop and cocktail and beer bar, has since 2017 been based in the basement.[11]
