In which banking institute was Soren Kierkegaard a customer?

At one time SΓΈren Kierkegaard kept his money at the National Bank in a locked chest where one of his brothers-in-law worked, and his brother-in-law had the only key. It's not really clear if this was a bank account but it doesn't look like it (more a private arrangement).

The money was in packets and came from an inheritance. Kierkegaard did not want to invest it as he said it was against his religious convictions, according to a book called Encounters with Kierkegaard: A Life as Seen by His Contemporaries. From time to time, he came and took a packet. This happened between about 1844 and 1854.

Apart from this, I can't find anything else on his banking arrangements.
