Museum Aarhus i Den Gamle By

The Museum of Aarhus conveys the history of the city and its inhabitants from the Viking Age to the present, together with the city's present inhabitants, the relocated people and people with an interest in Aarhus. The main emphasis is on the last 200 years.

The Aarhus Museum is part of the Old City.

The museum collects objects, photographs, stories and researchers in the lives of the Aarhusians until today.

The city's conservative houses and areas keep an eye on the museum, and the museum cooperates with the municipality on cultural environments.

How to convey Aarhus history: • In 2017 we will open the permanent exhibition Aarhus Story, which tells Aarhus's history from the Viking age and into the future. • In buildings and interiors that have moved from Aarhus to the Old City. For example, the Mayor and the shoemaker's workshop • In the image archive 80.0000 images from Aarhus. Here you can get help searching for local photos. The image archive collects and updates the image collection and you are invited to join. • In Aarhus and in the Old Town, we hold ongoing events, and we participate in events in the city's rooms, invite on guided tours of the city and more. • The museum also tells local stories together with local residents. • Would you like to know something about the place you live, we help you find answers.
