In 1778 he made his library available to the public.

The Anemone Theater ( Anemone Teatret in Danish ) is located at Suhmsgade 4 . The painter Julius Exner lived at Suhmsgade 5 / Hauserplatz 14 from 1874 to 1888 .

Suhmsgade in literature

In Søren Kierkegaard's stages on the path of life , Suhms-Gade is mentioned in the entry of the author of the manuscript from the third part of the work for February 28th. The author of the manuscript says that he goes to Hauserplatz every Wednesday at 4 a.m. to see the goldsmith. On February 28th he arrives 5 minutes earlier and after two minutes sees his former lover, who is looking for him on his usual route in the direction of Tornebuske-Gade . Thereupon he jumps out of the shop, turns into Suhms-Gade and arrives again at Hauserplatz from Tornebuske-Gade, at the end of which both pass each other.
