History

The building was constructed by Thomas Blom (1777-1841) in 1811. Blom and his wife Ingeborg née Cathrine Carstensen (died 1860) moved into one of the apartments of the new building. They had seven children over the following eight-year period: Johanne Emilie Blom (1812-1896), Peter Ludvig Blom (1814-1850), Julius Andreas Blom (1815-1900), Sigvard August Blom (1816-1900), Ida Wilhelmine Blom (1818-1896), Carl Waldemar Blom (1819-ca.1838) and Julie Georgine Blom (1820-1885). In 1825, Blom and his family moved two houses down the street after he had completed a new building at Kronprinsessegade 36.[1]

Architecture

The building consists of four storeys over a high cellar. It has five bays towards Kronprinsessegade, a chamfered corner bay and seven bays towards Dronningens Tværgade.
