Que faire à Aarhus

Aarhus Essentials

Aarhus showcases Denmark's evolution from the Viking Age to contemporary design. The city features the world’s oldest open-air town museum, Den Gamle By, and the underground Viking Museum built on original excavation sites. Architectural highlights include the functionalist City Hall, the glass-domed ARoS Art Museum with its iconic rainbow panorama, and the modern Dokk1 library. Historic landmarks like the 13th-century Aarhus Cathedral stand alongside the cobblestone charm of Møllestien and the innovative residential designs of the Aarhus Ø waterfront district.
