Aarhus Theatre

Highlight • Monument

The Aarhus Teater in Aarhus is the largest provincial theater in Denmark. The current theater was built at the end of the 19th century to replace the old theater, which had been nicknamed Svedekassen (The Sweathouse). As Aarhus had grown into Jutland's largest city during the 19th century, the old theater had become too small to meet public demand. A new building was designed by the Danish architect Hack Kampmann (1856-1920), and construction began on August 12, 1898. Just two years later, the Aarhus Theater was completed and inaugurated on September 15, 1900.

The Pod by Aarhus Cathedral

Highlight • Structure

Aarhus Cathedral (Skt. Clemens Church) is the longest and tallest church building in Denmark (93 meters long and 96 meters high). The cathedral is the main church in the diocese of Aarhus (Aarhus Stift).
The first known Bischoff, Reginbrand, was mentioned in 948. It is believed that in his time there was a wooden church in the Viking city of Árós (Århus), which was located in approximately the same place as the current church.
The construction of today's church began in the 1190s. It was a Romanesque basilica with two towers that were never completed. In 1330 a fire destroyed the roof structure, but the Romanesque church existed unchanged until around 1420, when extensive reconstruction was initiated. This resulted in today's Gothic cathedral with a tower.
Particularly worth seeing is the altar, which was made by Bernt Notke's workshop in Lübeck and was inaugurated in 1479. The Renaissance-style pulpit dates from 1588 and was probably made by the Dutch carpenter Mikkel van Groningen. The baptismal font, which is made of Einsenerz, was created in 1481 by the bell founder Peter Hansen in Flensburg.

Aarhus Central Station

Highlight • Rest Area

From Central Station there are international trains to Hamburg, long-distance trains to Aalborg and Copenhagen, regional trains to Struer, Herning/Skjern and Esbjerg and light rail to Odder, Lisbjerg, Lystrup, Mårslet, Ryomgård, the University Hospital and Grenå.

The first railway station in Aarhus was opened in 1862.
The construction of the current station building in 1927–1929 was part of a larger construction project that significantly changed the area around the station. It was chief architect K.T. Seest, who was responsible for the overall planning of the station and its surroundings. Aarhus Central Station was built in a neoclassical style and is a cul-de-sac.


The buildings around Banegårdspladsen were demolished and replaced with new ones. All of the new buildings were built from the same yellow brick and at the same height, so that the area now presents itself as a harmonious whole.

The station has 6 platform tracks.

In 2003, the Bruuns Galleri shopping center was added to Aarhus Central Station. The train station and Bruun's Gallery together form the framework for an indoor area of around 140,000 square meters.
