Yes. When the half-timbered houses were built they had thatched roofs. Those are highly inflammable and I think the great fire in Copenhagen on october the 23rd. 1728 (which destroyed around 1.600 houses) may have been the turning point when people realized that another roof material was required for safety.

The steep pitch I assumed had to do with heavy snow fall<<--- what? 
There wasn't any snow today only frost. And the reason why there are hardly any people is because it's the old part of the town. The streets are very narrow making it difficult for transportation and therefore many of them have been shut off.
