History

Nyhavn 35 in the 1900s

Nyhavn 35 was built about 1700 as a two-story building.[1] It was heightened with one story in 1785 and again in 1855. The composer and musician Andreas Peter Berggreen lived in the building in the mid-1830s. Moritz Levy (1824-1892), who would later become manager of the Bank of Denmark, lived in the building in 1853.[2]

Architecture

The building is four stories tall and five bays wide.


Today

The building is one of few buildings on the sunny side of Nyhavn that does not have a restaurant of café at street level. The film director Helene Moltke-Leth lives in the building and also runs her film production company MixtureFilms from the premises.
