The properties now known as Nyhavn 41–47 were formerly part of the same property. This property was listed in Copenhagen's first cadastre from 1578 as No. 28 in St. Ann's East Quarter, owned by tanner Villum Lydersen. In c. 1730, it was divided into four smaller properties. Toldbodgade was also continued southwards from Sankt Annæ Plads to Nyhavn across the land.[1] The property now nown as Nyhavn 43 belonged in 1731 to one Anders Møller.

The property was at some point acquired by brewer Poul Christensen Hvidsten (Widsten, 1712–1791). His property was listed in the new cadastre of 1756 as No. 22 in St. Ann's East Quarter. The present building on the site was built for him some time before 1788.
Hvidsten's property was home to three households at the 1787 census. The owner resided in the building with his wife Gunnild Cecilie Hvidsteen (née Dybe), their three-year-old son Lars Christian, two brewery workers (one of them an apprentice), a caretaker, a coachman and two maids.[2] The property was also home to two other households.

The lodgers included the later politician Johan Christian Henrik Fischer (then a theology student) and the brothers Frederik Wilhelm Willemoes (later physician) and Joachim Godske Willemoes (later priest).[12]
The number of residents was down to 25 at the 1850 census. The property was now owned by Johanne Hertz. The brewery and distillery were managed by Christian Hertz (b. 1820).

A small balcony is located in front of the central dormer. Under the roof runs a cornice supported by brackets.
