The first known reference to the village of Nyrup (Nuthorp) is in a letter from Pope Alexander III dated 2 November 1178.
The village belonged to Esrum Abbey until the Reformation.
In 1497 it consisted of 10 farms and in 1681 of six farms and four houses.
From 1674 until 1712 the residence of the forester of Kronborg County was in Nyrup.
After that he resided at Gurrehus.
Before Fredensborg was built, the king also had a hunting lodge at Nyrup.
It was located a little north of the village.
Nyrup was located at the site where the two royal roads (kongeveje) from Frederiksborg and Hirschholm Palace met before continuing to Helsingør and Kronborg.
The village was therefore from at least the beginning of the 18th century and probably much earlier home to an inn.

 
Kvistgård developed around Kvistgård station which opened on the new North Line in 1868.
The town was named after the farm Kvistgård (formerly Qvistgaard) on whose land it was built.
The farmhouse was subsequently referred to as Kvistgård Hovedgård (literally "Kvistgård Manor") to distinguish it from the station and settlement even if it had never been a manor house.
The land originally belonged to the hamlet of Munkegaarde but after the agricultural reforms of the 1780s came under Nyrup.
The first new buildings were in a housing development built by the railway company for railway workers.
In the mid-1870s, Ludvig Lichtenberg, owner of Kvistgård Hovedgård, established Kvistgård Brickyards (Kvistgård Teglværk).
Havreholm Fabrikker A/S a manufacturer of wood products, moved to a new site next to Kvistgård Station after a fire in 1897.
When these enterprises closed, new companies took over their premises.
The area remained relatively open until the middle of the 20th century but was gradually surrounded by residential neighbourhoods, workshops, a few shops and new industries.
