History
Located on the southern boundary of Frederiksstaden, which had just been founded, the building on the corner of Toldbodgade was built as a new home for Johan Jegind, a timber tradesman. Its architect was Nicolai Eigtved who also designed the masterplan for the new neighbourhood and many of its buildings.
The banker and later finance minister Johan Sigismund von Mösting lived in the building from 1814 until 1818. Count Carl von Moltke lived there from 1845.
In 1852, Ph. Randrup, its owner at that time, extended it with an extra floor. He also expanded it with a new building along Sankt Annæ Plads which was completed in 1855.
