Studsgade is a street in Aarhus which runs north to south from Nørreport to Klostergade and Graven. The street is situated in the historic Latin Quarter neighborhood and is home to four listed buildings. 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.
