If Aalborg were a house, the real estate agent would sell it as "loaded with potential." The 1,000-year-old city is Denmark’s fourth largest, and boasts a Viking past, over 300 restaurants, a casino, lively nightlife and great shopping. The zoo breeds rare Siberian Tigers, and the Waterland and Tivoliland make it a great place for families to visit. Aalborg isn’t a hotspot for foreigners, yet. But we’ll watch as the waterfront of this busy port continues to gentrify, with expectations it will be one in the future.

You will find the Monastery in the city center of Aalborg. A peaceful little spot in the vibrant down town area. During the summer period public tours are arranged where you get to see special parts of the monastery. Today, there is 28 apartments for senior citizens in the building which makes the monastery the oldest residence in Aalborg. The Monastery of the Holy Ghost was located at the city's western border in 1431. Today that exact spot is now down town Aalborg which says something about the huge transformation the city has gone through during the years. The building has also been used as a latin school and hospital during its time. The Monastery of the Holy Ghost provided help Aalborg was in the 400s a city in development. The inevitable pressure a growing population brings along, also brought the need for a religious and christian institution in the area. A place where people who were less fortuned could come and seek help and comfort. With help from a generous and kind woman of Aalborg, named Maren Hemmings, the foundation for the monastery was established in 1431. The Monastery's good intentions and care for others, also helped a group of young men a night before Christmas back in 1941. The young men were from the Churchill group, Denmarks first resistance movement during World War 2, and were given shelter in the monastery. Ghosts still walk the halls The tale tells stories of ghosts walking the halls of the monasterey. Not one but two is said to still be walking the halls at night. One is a lady, who after a traumatic relationship with a wealthy man, were walled in, inside the walls of the basement. The other one is a man, who restlessly walks the halls during New Years Eve.

Denmark's "party street," Jomfru Ane Gade is reported to contain the longest stretch of restaurants and pubs on any street in the country.
I can only imagine the parties going on here during summer time. Covid only left the Old Irish Pub and one more pub open and everything else closed. But those were full of young people - mostly soccer fans this Sunday as the local team had played (even though they lost 0-4 to FCN).
