Details About Aarhus

Destinations » Europe » Baltic Sea » Aarhus


Gateway to Denmarks pastoral Jutland Peninsula. Not to be missed are the meticulously recreated half-timbered houses at Den Gamle By.

Attractions

A trip to Aarhus would be incomplete without a visit to Den Gamle By (The Old Town). This fascinating open-air museum features 75 restored buildings from all around Denmark dating from the 17th- and 18th centuries. Full of things to see and do, it really is a must for any visitor.

Activities

  • Enjoy a trip to the Aarhus Kunstmuseum, which presents a wide-ranging collection of Danish art from the 19th and 20th centuries
  • Take a trip to the Tivoli Friheden, a fun-packed amusement park located just outside the city centre offering rides, clown shows, spectacular flower gardens and many cafés in which to sit and watch the crowds go by
  • Spend an engrossing hour or two at the Forhistorisk Museum Moesgard, a museum presenting amazing prehistoric artefacts, including the 2,000-year-old Graubelle Man, found preserved in a nearby bog in 1952
  • Pay a visit to the Musikhuset Arhus, a modern concert centre presenting performances ranging from classical to jazz to world music

Currency

The unit of currency in Denmark is the Krone (DKK). U.S. dollars are accepted in some of the more touristic stores and major credit cards are also widely accepted.
