In the late 17th century, the site was made up of three smaller properties. The corner property was listed as No. 1 in the city's West Quarter, owned by blacksmith Niels Nielsen, in 1689. The adjacent property in Rådhustræde was, as No. 2, owned by vrager Rasmussen and No. 3 was owned by locksmith Anders Mikkelsen. The three properties were all owned by grocer (urtekræmmer) Lars Frost by 1756.[1]

At the time of the 1787 census, No. 1–2–3 was home to a total of four households. Wilhelm Ravn, a retired economist, now with a royal pension, resided in the building with a housekeeper and a maid.[2] Hans Morten Sommer, a Supreme Court justice, resided in the building with his wife Abel Marie Hamon, a servant, two maids and a lodger.[3] Engel Kirstine Wildebrand, a widow, resided in the building with her two daughters and a maid.[4] Hans Peter Winge, a royal lackey, resided in the building with his wife Gundil Schau, their four children and one maid.[5]

The building complex was destroyed in the Copenhagen Fire of 1795 together with most of the other buildings in the area. The new corner building was constructed for master tailor Johan Henrich Kold in 1796–1797 and the adjacent building in Rådhusgade (now No. 2B) was constructed for him the following year.

Architecture

The corner building seen from Rådhusstræde.

Nytorv 15 is constructed with four storeys over a walk-out basement. It has a three-bay facade towards the square, a five-bay facade towards Rådhusstræde and a chamfered corner bay. The latter was dictated for all corner buildings by Jørgen Henrich Rawert's and Peter Meyn's guidelines for the rebuilding of the city after the fire so that the fire department's long ladder companies could navigate the streets more easily. The plastered facade is finished with shadow joints below a belt course on the ground floor. Other decorative elements include projecting sills below the first floor windows, blond friezes between the central windows of the first and second floor, a triangular pediment above the first floor corner window, and a dentillated cornice.[25]

The eight-bay-wide building at Rådhusstræde 2B is also constructed with four-storeys above a walk-out basement. The plastered facade is also finished here with a belt course, a blind frieze and a dentillated cornice. The narrow space between the two buildings has now been filled by a modern connector, with a door opening to a courtyard on the rear.[25]

Today

The building is owned today by E/F Nytorv 15/Rådhusstræde 2 A-C. It contains two condominiums on each floor, one in the corner building (Nytorv 15) and one in the Rådhusstræde wing (Rådhusstræde 2).
