In the oldest barn in Denmark you find the best WW2 museum in Denmark from a Danish perspective on the occupation and resistance that followed. Authentic memorabilia combined with great story telling and nicely laid out exhibits make this museum a must see for anyone interested in WW2. You can also get close to and old Viking ship and see the old manor Bangsbo. The gardens are suberbly laid out too and in the adjacent field and forest you can see many deers. Highly recommend!

If you're the least interested in paintings or the life of artists, do go here. The house of Anna and Michael Ancher is crammed with paintings, atmosphere and so many stories.

Kunsten is a living art museum allowing space for immersion, wonder and fascination. The museum houses a unique collection comprising over 4000 works of art, mostly post-1900, by Danish and foreign artists. The exhibition area consists of five galleries providing visitors with ample opportunity to experience the permanent collection as well as a number of special exhibitions. Kunsten also hosts a variety of events including lectures, film screenings, concerts, family workshops, guided tours, and other activities suitable for all age groups. The museum building, completed in 1972, is an attraction in its own right. Designed by the world-famous Finnish architect Alvar Aalto, assisted by Elissa Aalto and Jean-Jacques Baruel, it is the only museum building outside Finland designed by Aalto. The museum is built of striking white marble, a style that is continued inside with stunning marble flooring and copper lamps, also designed by Aalto.

I used to live in Aalborg in the dawn of time but I never got around to visit Kunsten. Now on a short holiday trip I did go there and actually wish I had been there before. The building by Aalto is a study in it self with many very nice details and the exhibition is really nice. The museum aims to put the art in context and to promote discussion e.g. by indicating "conversation zones" where you can discuss with you fellow art people. Nice cafe and sculpture park where there is also room for children.

We visited the Skagens Museum during a Viking cruise excursion and learned so much about the artists and history of the area while listening to the guide describe the beautiful works of art. Summer evening on Skagen Sanderstrand, 1893, was my favorite painting.

The burial site of Lindholm Hoje is one of the most beautiful ancient monuments in Denmark from late Iron Age and the Viking Age. Several hundred stone circles indicate the tombs. In the museum, you can see an exhibition on the lives of the Vikings on Lindholm Hoje as well as a new exhibition on the ancient time in the land of the Limfjorden.

If you are in Aalborg, don't miss to go here. The museum is very nice, as well as the outdoor area..
9. Bunkermuseum Hanstholm

Reviewed By EastVillageDenizen - Astoria, United States
We visited the Bunkermuseum in Hanstholm on a sunny, warm, late winter day. The museum is extremely informative and the many bunkers are well preserved and, as needed, restored. It struck us that those German military who were assigned to this post had relatively light duty, with spacious living quarters, dining areas, bathrooms with showers, etc. The front line foot soldiers of every nation would definitely want the comforts available here. The bunkers represent even more evidence of Hitler's love for concrete. While tha millions of cubic yards poured throughout France, in the Seigfried Line and elsewhere provided little defense against the Allied military machine, this outpost (which really did not see action during the war) is a testament to German engineering. The many weapons on display will intrigue even the most casual WWII military buff. It is well worth the visit.
