Things to do in Aalborg, Jutland: The Best Sights & Landmarks

August 18, 2021 Trinity Boughner

If Aalborg were a house, the real estate agent would sell it as "loaded with potential." The 1,000-year-old city is Denmark’s fourth largest, and boasts a Viking past, over 300 restaurants, a casino, lively nightlife and great shopping. The zoo breeds rare Siberian Tigers, and the Waterland and Tivoliland make it a great place for families to visit. Aalborg isn’t a hotspot for foreigners, yet. But we’ll watch as the waterfront of this busy port continues to gentrify, with expectations it will be one in the future.

Kunsten Museum of Modern Art Aalborg

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.

Lindholm Hoeje Museum

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.

Pretty cool place to go with kids. A lot of cool stuff to see especially the submarine, where you imagine how it was to serve there during cold war.
