History

A half-timbered property at the site was in December 1747 purchased by royal building master Jacob Fortling on behalf of Jacob Barchmann. Barchmann has constructed the Barchmann Mansion at the corner of Ny Kongensgade and Frederiksholms Kanal in 1740–41. The existing building were after a few years demolished and replaced by a new town mansion which was completed in 1757. The identity of the architect is not known but it is believed that it was designed by Philip de Lange who had also constructed Barchmann's first mansion at the site. It is assumed that the building was constructed as a rental property.[1]

The jurist Christian Martfelt (1728-1790) resided in the building in the years 1774–1779. Ny Kongensgade 3 and the Barchmann Mansion had the same owner until 1787. Ny Kongensgade 3 was in 1788 purchased by the historian Ove Malling[2]

The building was from 1841 to 1853 owned by Albert Bartholin Hagen. He refurbished the building. The property was in 1877 acquired by merchant Gunni Busck, owner of Scandinavian Preserved Butter company, who that same year also founded Københavns Mælkeforsyning. He installed gas, plymming and already ub 1885 also electricity.[1]

The mansion was in 1917 sold to Henri Odewahn. He was the owner of the leading tea company C. J. Carøe. He refurbished the building with the assistance of the architect Bent Helweg-Møller to. Odewahn was also the owner of the country house Rågegården in Rågeleje.[1]
