**Studsgade** is a street in [Aarhus](/source/Aarhus) which runs north to south from *Nørreport* to [Klostergade](/source/Klostergade) and *Graven*. The street is situated in the historic [Latin Quarter](/source/Latin_Quarter,_Aarhus) neighborhood and is home to four [listed buildings](/source/Listed_buildings_in_Aarhus_Municipality). The street has existed since at least the 1400s, when it was known as *Sturisgade* and *Stus Gaden*, probably for councillor Jep Sture, who had a house there. It was officially given its current name in 1796.[1]

In the middle of Studsgade lies the small square *Rykind* from where the narrow alley *Snævringen* leads to [Mejlgade](/source/Mejlgade).

## History

Studsgade was the northern inroad to the [medieval](/source/Middle_Ages) town, and like other roads leading into the town, it was built on at an early time. In the 1400s, it was a street of significance. [Mejlgade](/source/Mejlgade) was established at a later time and became the thoroughfare for traffic from [Grenå](/source/Gren%C3%A5) while Studsgade was turned in the direction of [Randers](/source/Randers), so it included the northern part of today's *Nørreport*.[2]

Studsgade may have had a city gate in the direction of Grenå, but in the 1700s it had been moved to the site of the current [Aarhus School of Architecture](/source/Aarhus_School_of_Architecture). In 1757, a new road was opened from Studsgade to [Christiansbjerg](/source/Aarhus_N#Christiansbjerg) in the north, which funneled a lot of traffic from *Munkegade's Port* to Studsgade.[3] The increased traffic made Studsgade more useful for merchants, and several merchant's houses from that time can be found along the street today.

## Listed buildings

Studsgade contains four listed buildings from 1700, 1749, 1842 and 1847, situated side by side by *Nørreport*. Three of the buildings are half-timbered, and the fourth is a 3 winged brick structure that used to house a factory.[4][5][6][7]
