5 Historical & Heritage Tours in Aarhus That You Shouldn't Miss

April 19, 2022 Marlin Saiz

Jutland's cultural heart, Århus is an exuberant university town with a perfectly preserved old town and a recreated historic village, Den Gamle By. The top draw is the Moesgard Museum of Prehistory, showcasing exhibits from the Stone Age to Viking days and home to the city's most famous citizen, the 2000-year-old Grauballe Man. It's a lively spot, teeming with cafes, restaurants, clubs and cinemas. Denmark's second-largest city perches on Jutland's eastern coast amid beaches and woodland.

We've lived near Aarhus for two years, but Marina opened our eyes to aspects of the city's art that we hadn't seen before. It was a really fun tour, and Marina made it so interesting with her insights about the street art and the history of Aarhus. She's wonderfully enthusiastic about Aarhus and Denmark, and we loved the time we spent with her! The tour has added even more to our enjoyment of living near this beautiful city.
