4 Must Visit Places in Aarhus, Denmark!

Den Gamle By, (The Old Town), is an open-air town museum located in Aarhus, Denmark.

After starting our journey in Copenhagen and spending a week at the Viborg Gymnastics and Sports Academy College, and another week at Ågård Efterskole, a High School Boarding Academy in Kolding, focusing on secondary education and gymnastics, we continued our month long journey of exploring Danish culture through the study of Danish Gymnastics in the city of Århus, located in the central eastern part of Jutland. Århus is Denmark’s second largest city and calls itself the “World’s Smallest Big City”. If you haven’t noticed, Denmark’s Second City, Århus, can also be spelled as Aarhus in the Danish language. Either spelling is correct.

While enjoying the immersion experience of living at the gymnastics boarding academies the past few weeks, we enjoyed spending our last week in Denmark living with a host family and exploring the beautiful city of Aarhus! From the Old Town to the Deer Park and the Queen’s Palace, Aarhus is filled with lots of interesting things to see and do. Check out some of those treasures on the Treasures Of Traveling website!
