Aarhus is Denmark's Capital of Culture and the second largest city in the country – a young, creative metropolis that shone as the European Capital of Culture in 2017 and has continued to surprise ever since. The city's landmark is the ARoS Art Museum with its iconic Rainbow Panorama on the roof: a 150-meter-long, circular skywalk in all rainbow colors, through which one views the city in color-soaked light. This work by Danish-Icelandic artist Olafur Eliasson is one of the most photographed artworks in Scandinavia.

The Old Town Den Gamle By is a unique open-air museum that replicates a complete Danish small town from various centuries – with real craftsmen, bakers, and merchants in historical costumes. Here, you literally wander through the centuries, from the Middle Ages through the Biedermeier period to the 1970s, complete with a reconstructed hippie commune and a jazz cellar. For history enthusiasts, the Moesgaard Museum is a highlight: it houses the Grauballe Man, a 2,000-year-old bog body that is so well preserved that his fingerprints can still be recognized.

Aarhus has one of the liveliest food scenes in Scandinavia. The Latinerkvarteret (Latin Quarter) with its cobblestone streets is full of independent cafes, restaurants, and boutiques. The Street Food Market Aarhus Central Food Market offers global cuisine in an industrial setting. The harbor area Aarhus Ø has been completely redesigned, combining modern architecture with harbor flair and public harbor baths where locals swim year-round. For travel from Germany, direct flights are available from several German cities or you can drive via the Jutland route.
