Early history
Amaliegade 12 was built between 1753 and 1755 by Nicolai Eigtved for the timber merchant Dittleff Lindenhoff. Eigtved had also created the overall plan for the new Frederiksstaden district just a few years earlier.[1]
In the new cadastre of 1756, the property was listed as No. 71 L. On Cristian Gedde's district map of St. Ann's East Quarter from 1757, it was marked as No. 319.[2] It was by then owned by one Шаблон:Lang baron Wedel.[3]
Hauch
Adam Wilhelm Hauch, a military officer who was appointed to chamberlain that same year, acquired the building in 1782. He lived in the house until 1785 and went on a longer journey in Europe the following year.
Reventlow
In 1783, Hauch's heirs sold the property for 17,000 Danish rigsdaler to Christian Ditlev Frederik Reventlow for use as his new city home. By royal resolution of 1786, Reventlow received permission to loan the money for the house from a bonded Fideikommis capital acquired from the sale of Lungholm.[4] Reventlow's holdings included Christianssæde and Pederstrup on Lolland and he played a central role in the Danish agricultural reforms of the 1780s and 1790s and was appointed as Minister of the State in 1797.
The property was listed in the new cadastre of 1806 as No. 120 in St. Ann's East Quarter. By royal resolution of 17 August 1815, Reventlow obtained permission to sell the house in Amaliegade. The money would be used for improving his estates on Lolland.[4]
