[1] The current house was built for Jacob Steinfass in 1770–71 to a design by an unknown architect.

It was built as an adaption and extension of an existing building and incorporates elements from its predecessor.

[2] In the early 1970s, the house was converted into a dorm, Sofiegården, and expanded with modern wings along Sofiegade and Dronningensgade.

The original contains five rooms and two three-room flats in two upper floors, and various shared facilities on the ground floor, including a day-care centre.

The basement houses the bar Sofiekælderen which is popular for live music.
