Welcome to Aarhus
(See “Aarhus Center” map,
here
.)
This quick little walk acquaints you with the historic center, covering
everything of sightseeing importance except the three big museums (modern
art, prehistory, and open-air folk). You'll begin at the cathedral, check out the
modest sights in its vicinity, wander the cute Latin Quarter, take a stroll down
the “most beautiful street” in Aarhus, and end at the canal. After touring the
impressive cathedral, the rest of the walk should take about an hour.
• Start by touring Aarhus Cathedral.

While Scandinavia's biggest church (330 feet long and tall) is typically stark-
white inside, it also comes with some vivid decorations dating from before
the Reformation.
