History
The royal road to Frederiksborg was opened to the public in 1767. It was blocked by boom barriers where a road toll was collected. One of the boom houses was located just south of Kongens Lyngby. It was later converted into a country retreat known as Bomhuset. Its owner acquired more land on the east side of the road.David Moyel, a furniture dealer, purchased the property in 1804. In 1807, he constructed the White Mansion with two identical apartments which were let out to citizens from Copenhagen during the summer season. The two kitchens were located in the basement. Moyel was also the owner of the neighboring building Bomhuset.
