Well worth a visit, an interesting mix of things to see and do. Does a good job of catering for non Danish speaking visitors but would have got 5 stars if more of the display information cards were in English

Really pleasantly surprised with how fun this museum was. I took my two kids, who are 9 & 11 and they absolutely loved it there! There are so many activities that you don’t have time to get bored. Very interactive and educative. It costs 110dkk to get in but for 130dkk you can get a season pass, so it was a no brainer! Already looking forward to going back as we didn’t have time to try everything after our 4 hour visit!

Great place to visit with kids. Lots of stuff to see and try. They have a tesla coil which is a must see. Also there are a 1920s, 1930s and 1950s house for you to explore.

Good day with sunshine weather and activities for all family members, some to see what we learned in school, other to play and have fun

Very interesting. They have live sessions, teaching about cool science.

We had a great time looking round, using their hands on display and seeing how technology has moved.

Great for families. Good value for money as children are free. Lots of things to try out for kids. Moon car race track, lightning show, insect sampling, pet goats, train ride.

This zoo was beyond our expectations, it has several species of animals that one may not found in every other zoo. It is a tropical zoo with animals from Asia, Africa & South America and many of those are rarest animal species. It has really nice playgrounds and cafes too. One can easily spend 4-5 hours here.

Do you want a jungle adventure without breaking the bank, this place could be for you. 3 bio domes houses numerous fish, birds, insects and animals like monkeys, Sloth, Crocodile s and many other. We visited this place in start of June and had a great experience. Familys with children will have a splendid time here. After your adventure you can enjoy some food in the cafe or visit a shop with merchandise. I recommend this place for children in all ages and for all interested in biology and animals.

Generally good. But you can tell that the zoo is coming into its years. Way too crowed!! People are pushing through with their big kiddie bicycle trailers or huge prams. It’s also very loud even if signs are asking visitors to be quiet. Still kids are loving it and the new outdoor area is nice.

A must see if you are visiting the area! I was really surprised by the diversity of the ecosystems on display here. Each space was beautifully constructed and everything seemed natural and wild. There were a lot more animals here than I had expected. The info cards about each animal were a nice addition and I learned many new bits of trivia during the visit.

I love Randers Rainforest even though I live in Copenhagen I have now been there twice, this last time on my own so that I could take my time. I want to go again soon.

This is how a zoo should be! They way they build the zoo is briljant everything seems to be one. A little ledge zo the turtles dont run away but you can step in with them. A little house with a window with big cuddly cats, a cave with bats where they nearly hit you head, really cool! pro tip, if you have binoculairs bring them! To see the birds upclose is even cooler. Another tip, my pregnant wife needed a few times to sit. And everytime you do you wil discover new animals, so take your time. All signs have English on them and they have really smart signs with al the animals on them you might wanna take a photo of them zo you can cross off what you found, a little where is Waldo. We came around 13:00 and parking was really full, we had to wait til somebody left. We waited 5 minutes so not that long. We spend like 3 hours and took our time and had a little lunch. And we forget to see the animals outside… I saw that in the other reviews. Sometimes the signs on the doors are a bit demotivating, something Danisch stands on the door and it probable says you may not eat in there and pet animals but if you cannot read it it could also say dont go in here. Will come back!

Awesome place, animals get pretty close and live very well. 🙏👌Lots of outdoor space and playgrounds for kids to. ☀️💙

Very interesting visited the Jonny Cash museum too. A little expensive for what it’s worth.

It was an awesome thing to visit a replica of Graceland in Denmark. The inside was like a museum of collections the owner has acquired. It was a good visit and the restaurant was really good. We had lunch and enjoyed it a lot.

My partner booked this as a surprise for my birthday , we are staying for a week in Denmark and we both thought it was amazing! We were greeted by a lovely man called Mathias who was both friendly and informative, he also went out of his way to help us with one of the videos so we could watch in English. As a massive Elvis fan this is a must , so many gems in this collection , it’s just an Elvis Lovers dream. The enthusiasm and excitment Henrik has for Elvis is so nice to see , I really hope this place stays open for ever! We visited on a weekday around 10:30 we arrived and had the whole museum to ourselves! It was great to have that time to leisurely look at everything. We had food in the highway 51 diner too, it’s great if you eat meat as there’s a ton of options but as a vegetarian I found myself left with a few options , the veggie burger or the PB & J sandwich or the salads I think, it’s a great vibe but it would be nice to have some more varied vegetarian options too. However, food was hot and well seasoned which is really important! The gift shop was maybe lacking some more variety , there’s a ton of books, cd’s and vinyls but not much on merchandise front like t shirts, decorative items etc. There are lots of photos to be taken in and around the mansion, the Johnny cash museum and the tupelo house was really cool also and it’s nice to have Elvis music playing everywhere, even outside! 10/10 would recommend and if we ever come back to Denmark we will definitely be visiting again! Thank you to everyone as this is a really special place.

THE STUPENDOUS MEMPHIS MANSION. SUPERB IN EVERYWAY . I was there as a guest of Benny Ray who is great friends with Henrik and Gitte the owners. The food was spectacular. The atmosphere absolutely amazing. The staff were the best. Having worked at Planet Hollywood, London at the very beginning in 1993. And managed the Fulham Boulevard in 1985 . And having excellent training in Restaurants . You will remember this experience forever. I highly recommend this brilliant Museum of ELVIS MEMROBILLIA. The shop has LP's, CD's. Shirts which are of super high quality. Please when in Randers,Denmark go treat yourself. ELVIS LIVES! Derek Lyons

Fantastic Elvis vibe! Great American style diner w/ fantastic burgers and shakes! A stage outside for live music and a huge collection of Elvis memorabilia and gift shop! Best part is the non-stop Elvis music playing in the background ❤️❤️❤️ Excellent Hospitality!! Fantastic 😊

Cozy Elvis museum plus a bonus Johnny Cash exebition. There's also a nice American style diner. And it did look like many locals stopped by just for the food too.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. The museum was also truly amazing not only because it is nearly identical to the original one but also because of the things you can see that Elvis has worn or used. I can also suggest the burgers at the restaurant👌

Museum Jorn is a quiet and small museum. It can be an enjoyable stop for those interested in Asger Jorn’s style. Some of the works are quite interesting and unique, and overall, the museum has a different kind of atmosphere. If you have time in Silkeborg, it’s worth a visit.

You have to visit this beautiful museum and enjoy some of his great, great paintings.....AND then take a walk in INDELUKKET

Cool and reasonably sized museum. Both Jorn and other artists too. Great for kids, painting studio and a really nice playground just around the corner.

Beautiful museum and surroundings. Art collection ok. Go for the architecture and cafe, and then take a stroll in the park on the marina.

Small, cosy full of wonderful art. Perfect location!

Fun and creative museum with amazing collection and greatly curated exhibitions, we thoroughly enjoyed. Friendly and helpful service as well and nice gift shop!

I truely recommend Asger Jorn museum. Like walking in another time

♿ Entrance = Yes ♿ Parking = Yes ♿ Building = Yes ♿ Elevator = medium size There are many parking lots in front of the building where you can park and the entrance is big enough for wheelchair users. The main building has a souvenir area, AQUA and outside there are several animals and a massive playground. The Aqua building is a bit of a let down if you don't speak danish. Most of the floors are only in the danish language. The outside has like 19 different animals and every hour some of the animals are fed by the zookeeper's. They are also telling more about the backstory of the animal. The entire park is accessible by a wheelchair but the only thing you may want to keep in mind that the sand walking path can be soft at times beEventually you will come across a big water playground for the kids and I'm talking around the size of one animal place, which makes This place amazing for kids if they have swimming clothes. One thing I don't understand is why the snacks and the ice cream shop is only open on the weekend. They are missing out on a lot of money by having the shops closed because of the kids and the big playground. Most families have 2+ kids. They have free WIFI. I have seen everything in 3 hours but it may be possible for you to do less making it debatable if the entry price seems fair or a bit too expensive (especially if you don't understand the danish language in the AQUA)

It is not that big but the water play is very amazing. They called it a aquarium zoo but not much fish nor not much animal Instead the design for water plan is very nice, based on the environment of the beaver, which is the animal you see. Their website can improve on more info on English and also let parents know to bring bathing suits

Go on a sunny day if you have children — then it’s probably a 5-star place to be. Most of the park is outdoors, and they have a big playground, which is fantastic for kids. Everything is based around water mechanics, so bring some swimwear! Why it was a 3-star place for us: we don’t have children (yet), so we came for the animals and to learn something. In the aquarium, as a foreigner, you’ll need a good internet connection for Google Translate because everything is in Danish… The upper floor looked educational, but I had no idea what it was trying to tell me. I found one monitor that could switch to English, but it failed to load. Outside, there is some English on the signs, which helped a bit. The otter exhibit is so overgrown with vegetation that, with a bit of luck, we saw one — but it ran away immediately. The beaver exhibit was the best part! One of the beavers was swimming while the others, including a few babies, were sleeping — it looked really cozy! All the animals are native to Denmark, so don’t expect any fancy, bright-colored fish. There’s a small parking lot in front of the aquarium. You’ll need some luck to find a spot there.

Nice local fauna, animals, and fish display. Many places for children to play, places to eat, and picnic areas.

This place is a hidden gem, especially for anyone interested in local Danish nature. The focus on fauna from the Gudenåen area is both educational and fascinating, and the otters, racoons and beavers are so cute. You can watch the otters being fed and hear how they get there. They also do rescue work and take care of otters needing help. The staff are friendly and welcoming. While the aquarium seems to cater mainly to families with young children, it’s just as enjoyable for adults visiting solo. The eel exhibit, in particular, is both intriguing and a little eerie, making it a standout experience. The location itself is stunning, set in a beautiful area perfect for a peaceful walk by the lakes and river afterward. It's well worth a visit!

Exhibit for the fish is a bit limited but combined with garden outside makes it worth coming here with children. Also there is a good walking trail along side the lake. Café Dråben is where its extremely disappointing. I dont think the fault is with the teenage girls doing the cooking but rather the ingredients and how the girls were taught to prepare food. One of the worst salads i ate in my life.

Amazing experience! Instead of going and seeing the standard 'zoo setup', use the experience to see what cute creatures and other animals are living in the forests, rivers here in Europe. Easy to get there, by car or train (I travelled from Aarhus by train). Tickets cost cheaper if bought online and I suggest visiting the centre in morning, around 10:00 then the animals haven't had their breakfast yet and are more active and visible. Timewise - and hour is enough, in case you are in rush, if not, then you can enjoy the park for longer time, there was a space dedicated for children and areas where you can sit down and rest for a while, if needed. Recommend!

High place in Denmark, it was really nice view from there🍃🍃❤️❤️

Very nice place for short trip from Silkeborg.

Super nice! 🤩😍🥰

Simple and easy trek. Signs are posted along the way, so zero chance of getting lost. Ry is the closest station with connecting inter-city metro/tram/bus. But the frequency is not so good, so plan your trek well. The view from the top of Himmel Mountain is beautiful.

Mountain where gods lived as Danish legend... Worth to visit beautiful place.. beautiful view.. beautiful hiking trails and lots of crowded.

Tallest mountain of Denmark and a really beautiful place to go for a weekend trip!

Nice view and surroundings. Easy to park, and also accessible by wheelchair

We visited Aarhus for the day while on a cruise, and the Botanical Gardens and Tropical Houses quickly became one of my absolute favourite stops. Nestled right in the city, this beautiful green space offers a peaceful escape and a surprising amount to explore—all for free, which I really appreciated! The gardens themselves are lovely to stroll through, showcasing native Danish plants and thoughtfully designed landscapes. But the real highlight for me was the Tropical Houses. The glass domes are like stepping into a different world—lush, warm, and full of life. Inside, you’re surrounded by towering palms, vibrant flowers, waterfalls, and even butterflies fluttering freely through the air. As a houseplant lover, I was blown away by the size and health of many familiar plants I grow at home—jade plants, umbrella plants, bird of paradise, banana plants, philodendrons, and so many more. They looked like they were on steroids compared to my little potted versions! It was amazing to see them in this thriving, naturalistic environment. Whether you’re into plants, photography, or just want a relaxing place to explore, this spot is a must-visit in Aarhus. It’s a perfect mix of nature, education, and tranquility, right in the middle of the city. Don’t miss this gem—especially if you’re visiting Aarhus on a short stop like we were. I’d go back in a heartbeat!

Very nice Botanical Garden mid of Aarhus, Free entry a good cafe and greenhouse,amazing plants from around to world , they are divided into small and large groups and telling what and where they are from . Staffs are very friendly and helpful. For sure you will be very happy to visit here and see all these amazing garden .

It's good to visit this botanical garden once, but you don't have to. This place seems to be one of the places loved by locals. It is well decorated with various themes and well-organized to understand.

A beautiful botanical garden with so many plants you’ve seen and others you probably haven’t. I can’t believe this is free to just walk around and stay as long as you like. Personally, an hour is plenty here but it is a beautiful place to see.

I love coming here! Such a varied, big, well looked after and FREE place! They have an awesome variety of plant species and the last section you can walk through packs a lot of fun in a cool space. There is a cafe there and gift shop. Plenty of things to occupy all ages! Parking is paid parking.

Nice place if you’re looking to spend your time meaningful and relaxing. If you are a nature lover then this must be in your bucket list . When we were here we feel like throat we were at home Sri Lanka . All the plantations belong to Sri Lanka climate planted here inside the green house . And the sounds are also match perfectly to the environment. Tropical weather with high humidity and all the plantations are here to find .

Very beautiful place full of many different plants from many different colours. The entrance was free. There's even a wooden watchtower inside and some butterflies flying around the greenhouses.

Absolutely amazing place! It really is like you are back in time. It was so interesting walking around fully immersed in the past. You could maybe spend all day here if you really took your time. My favourite thing in Aarhus and possibly the best musuem I’ve been to!

A wonderful step back in times past, representing many eras, cultures and historic events. Great for the family and history buffs. This spacious recreation is thoughtfully laid out walking through the Vikings to 1970s in the form of Main Street, museum of artifacts, village recreations and country estate with authentic trade shops. Historic coffee and bakery from the 1800s was inviting and delicious. Preteens may not appreciate the historical context of Aarhus, said to be the first civilized port of the Viking era. Well maintained and mostly accessible. Loved our visit

The absolutely beautiful museum took me back in time. I loved the 1970s themed arrangements the most. We had the perfect opportunity to visit during the K7 week too. Watch out for the ducks, they chase you!

What a fun experience. See housing, shops and vocational skills from several different time periods. Well maintained, picturesque area, and friendly hosts. Cute gift shop, too, that offers a variety of options from candy and toys, to kitchen gadgets, books, and ornaments.

Our first stop this morning was to The Old Town Museum (known as Den Gamle By). It is a museum that allows visitors to have a feel of the architecture and culture of the different eras – particularly the years 2014, 1974, 1927 and 1864. Even the streets have been remodelled accordingly with the cobbled streets belonging to an older era and smoother streets to the more modern era. You will see that the entire Old Town museum in Aarhus is immersive in that you can enter different buildings and learn about the history of that particular building. There are also period actors that would perhaps be a blacksmith, a backer and even a brewer – whom you can interact with to learn more about what they are doing... For the full review of Den Gamble By and details of our 5 Months Round The World Trip, visit 2bearbear today!

Den Gamle By is a very cool experience. We spent over 6 hours exploring all of the homes, businesses and gardens that have been recreated/ reconstructed. Good variety of food and drink options as you make your way through. Quite a lot of interactions set up in many of the exhibits, and the rotary phones you can use to call businesses in the town are such a fun idea.

Stepping into Aarhus Old Town is like time travel! You'll love wandering its charming cobblestone streets, admiring the beautifully preserved old buildings. It's truly an open-air museum, brimming with Danish history and a delightful, authentic atmosphere. Don't miss this captivating journey back in time!

The building itself is pretty cool. Some of the exhibitions are nice. They have headphones but only in Danish. The roof top sky walk is fun to take photos of.

suppose I hate modern art as most of this was dreadful to my eyes. I did like the landscape paintings and a few others but most of it was weird, bad or just utter nonsense. The two women cutting onions was the biggest joke they called art. I don’t get the rainbow roof either, so what? It’s tinted glass, for kids or Instagram/TikTokers it may be good but not for adults.

♿ Entrance = Yes ♿ Parking = Yes ♿ Building = Yes ♿ Elevator = small / medium sized The aarhus art museum is what I was looking forward to see for awhile now and I got the chance to do it today. I was a bit disappointed from the expectations as they do have 10 floors but in reality only 7-8. The highest floor has the rainbow colored glass and This is definitely the best part of the museum in my opinion. 2 levels below it as the human art which was decent. The floor below it was okay. And all the other floors wasn't worth checking out. 2 floors were for a younger audience. So if you're going as a family it may be worth visiting all the floors. If you're all adults. You may not stay there for super long. They have a cafeteria and toilets as well as Free WiF, they have a button that slows down the rotating door which is good for bad walkers or wheelchair usersi. It's not a bad place but not a super interesting one either in my opinion.

Beautiful museum. A lot of stairs, but there are elevators available for people with difficulty to walk. We loved the interactive art area. We appreciated that the front desk employee warned us for a scarier exposition on the third floor, since we brought our child. That way we could avoid it. What could have made the experience so much better would be if they’d implement a play area for young children. Young kids can get bored or overwhelmed and it would be nice if they could de-stimulate in a play area/child friendly area. That way someone can watch the kids in the play area while the other can enjoy art in peace. The rainbow panorama is very noisy. This could trigger you if you’re sound sensitive. Best is to bring some kind of noise cancelling for a better experience. There was so much amazing art in this museum. It’s definitely worth a visit. Parking is a bit difficult. We went on a workday and there were very few parking spots available.

Walking into ARoS feels like entering a soul. Not a building. A soul. There’s this weight in the air — not heavy like sadness, but like meaning. Like emotion stretched out over canvas and sculpture. Like a mirror you didn’t ask for, but couldn’t look away from. 🪞💔 You walk past massive human forms, surreal tunnels, and sometimes... just emptiness. But the kind that makes you want to cry and laugh and fall in love all at once. Every room feels like an emotion you once had — or tried to forget. 😭💗🖤 And then… then there’s the rainbow panorama. The city is below you, silent, distant, still... and you’re walking through color. Through emotion. Through perspective. Through the prism of your own heart. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜 Every step changes how you see the world. How you see yourself. You start yellow, full of joy. Then blue… melancholic. Red… passionate. Green… calm. It's like mood rings for the soul. I walked that circle three times. Once with wonder. Once with longing. Once just to cry. 🌈🔁🫂 This isn’t just art. It’s emotional warfare. It rips you open and stitches you back up with neon thread. 🧵✨

This museum is a hidden gem. There are 9 floors full of different kinds of art, and the collections never felt too repetitive like the large world-class art museums sometimes do. Floor 0 and all the installments must be checked out; our favorite was the Storm Room haha! I think total I spent 4 hours here, but I went back later in the day before it closed so luckily you can break it up a bit if you need to.

A great museum for a wide range of art, from paintings to 3D sculptures and the rainbow circle of glass on top. The building itself was super cool, especially the internal «courtyard» in the middle with its bridges spanning across the ravine. Enjoyed my visit and will def revisit if I get back to Århus!

When it comes to the space where you can feel the best local feeling, I choose the library. I always visit the city's library wherever I go, but this place felt very family-friendly. Rather than borrowing a book, I felt like I was spending time with my family here and spending the day. The library itself was not a big one. However, to be in a place where you can see the beautiful sea, you will feel good.

Totally awesome place to study and also relax with the view. I always come here and going forward for reviewing my notes in lib. Removed one star because it closed on Saturday 😭

A pretty nice and large library with many options for entertainment. A lot of college students like to go down there to review their work or just relax with a book or their multitude of games. There’s both consoles (Which you need to ask to be opened) and other options for games. Back in the days it used to have more classic consoles, which unfortunately don’t seem to be there anymore, at least to my knowledge. As a local I’d recommend going if you have nothing to do in town.

Favorite spot in town! Literally can spend a whole day working and studying in this library, the view is just too amazing 🤩

Great place for tourists and children. Nice views across the harbour with seating and cafe to rest for tourists. and lots of children books and area for kids. Can get busy during the day. Lots of university students here studying.

Apart from the fact that there is access to a wonderful library, study room, high-tech exhibitions, spaces where you can have a coffee with friends, underground parking, etc... for me, it is the most beautiful view of the sea.

Very beautiful architecture with several reading areas and Cafés. You have amazing views of the city and waterfront from the library. I can't comment the books as I don't speak Danish but I felt the foreign language books could have been a little more.

A visually stunning musician with an already huge reputation for arts and culture. One of my favourite nutrients of the year! This lives up to every expectation set; accessible, huge, interactive, fun for kids, insightful, visually stunning and such an education. The Celtic exhibition was really special, and the attention to detail was incredible. The thought that has gone into these exhibitions means it's somewhere I will always come back to when I visit the area. I've read about the performances also outside which look incredible too.

To see each and every part of museum, you need at least 4hr max more then that. Really a awesome place to visit at weekend. Entire museum goes like a movie, each and every place you can find explanation.

What a wonderful museum! Great display of Viking as well as middle ages relics. Nice life-size diorama. Very good films. Everything with English text and/or English audio. Nice experimental things for kids to playfully learn with. The building itself is a work of art. The tour I took, in German, about the life of the Vikings was so-so to useless (if you have watched Vikings or Valhalla, then you don't need to take the tour (not worth the money... it costs extra).

I visited Moesgaard Museum on a weekday, and it was absolutely fantastic. You can easily spend many hours here, both indoors and outdoors. The surrounding nature is stunning, and the museum itself is a true gem for anyone interested in history and architecture. A highly recommended place to visit – I would gladly return🤩

Super interesting museum, huge place with lots of different depictions and quite a bit of story behind every corner of it. Would recommend dedicating a full day to it as there is a lot to see. The Grauballe Man, which is a bog body older than 2000 years, is really a special thing to see.

Absolutely worth visiting — one of the best museums I’ve ever been to (and I’ve been to many). You can’t get the real feeling just by looking at pictures; you need to hear, touch, and explore here. I agree that it might not be the best choice for small children, but with enough time, parents can still make it interesting for them. Plan for at least five hours (or more), and it’s a good idea to take a few breaks — or even split your visit over a couple of days. It would be great if there were a playground, like in IKEA, where parents could leave their kids for a couple of hours. I don’t expect to find German or other translations in every museum, so I’m very grateful that everything here is translated into English. Thank you for the great work! We’ll definitely come again, and I’ll be recommending this museum to my friends.

A wonderful and fascinating place — a must-see! I would give 5 stars, but there’s no section suitable for small children, which makes it a bit difficult for families with young kids.

This prison museum was incredibly interesting and left a deep impression. I found every section engaging, with new and informative displays around each corner. The basement was the most impactful part for me — especially the photo of a former prisoner, which really stayed with me. Most of the written information is available in English, making it easy to follow along. However, the films are all in Danish, so keep that in mind if you don’t speak the language. Overall, a powerful and well-designed museum that I definitely recommend visiting.

Amazing museum. Very busy, great stories to tell.

It was okay but we had smaller children and it was not very interesting for them. The biker gang stuff, the contraband search game and the escape tunnel were good though and I would still recommend it if people have the time.

Faengslet as an event site has potential but it is cold everywhere. The atmosphere is authentic but low-key. We had a great event!

Museum and Christmas market opening- was spectacular

Amazing history museum in an old prison. It guides you through history of Danish penal system and engages you with stories of Danish criminal underground and increduble jailbreaks.

A nice stay. Extra plus for the good beds and superb bed lining. On the downside it smelled of mold in the sleeping area. The museum was a treat and the whole family enjoyed it.

Very interesting church and very well preserved. Jelling Church dates back to around 1100. There are a beautiful religious carve mural inside the church in watercolor done by Julius Magnus Petersen. It is really beautifully painted.

Beautiful little church at the site of Jelling stones 👍

Has runestone related to the oldest danish kings. Very serene and peaceful environment.

A nice, and well preserved church

Historically significant place. No need to expect so much. But if you passing by definitely worth to stop by...

Local church, graveyard and symbolic place with a beautiful history, that starts in the Middleages. Two enormous, ancient stones engraved by the first Dutch kings. Very nice attracion with a splendid sight on surrounding houses, and a former historic village. Around the place there are fortifications partly reconstructed for tourists to imagine the size of the historic location.

The rune-stones are a must see for all interested in viking history, marking the birth certificate of Denmark and of great historic value for all the Scandinavian countries.

Give yourself at least 60-90 minutes to take it in. See the church in the back, we were lucky to hear the organist playing. Many families here with hands on activities. Take a while to explore and read the markers for explanations. Good gift shop too.

Great for a day trip! The museum was very interactive and easy to understand, but not boring or too simple. The staff also was very friendly and helpful. They had information material in Dutch, German and English ready so we also had no language barrier. The exhibition was both in Dutch and English. The gift shop also had a variety of nice goodies

There is a big hill next to a church that you should and can't ignore when you are visiting there. It's a good relaxing sight but the only way to get up on the top of the hill is by walking on the staircase next to the church. There is no flat road, so if you are a bad walker you may want to think twice if you want to go upstairs. There is no bench or sitting place on top of hill. There are some big runic stones Infront of the church you can inspect or Walking over the peaceful graveyard.

Recommended 👍 The Jelling stones (Danish: Jellingstenene) are massive carved runestones from the 10th century, found at the town of Jelling in Denmark. The older of the two Jelling stones was raised by King Gorm the Old in memory of his wife Thyra. The larger of the two stones was raised by King Gorm's son, Harald Bluetooth, in memory of his parents, celebrating his conquest of Denmark and Norway, and his conversion of the Danes to Christianity. (Wikipedia)

Must visit place to witness christening of Denmark. We came after closing hours of nearby museum but still a lot of to see in the open air part (including the stones with runes)

So culturally this is a very important site for Denmark, really marking the start of the country from both geographic and political position. But it's not exactly exciting.

For history buffs, you are looking at the runes that established Denmark as a country. The historic church (kirke) is typical of the many that dot the landscape of Denmark.

Great place to visit and sink into the history of the country and industry!

We had a great time. The fact that there was such a variety of exhibits and almost everything was very hands-on really kept our kids' attention. We ended up staying for almost 4 hours. There was room to have a packed lunch - indoors, too, which was particularly useful on the day of our visit. Free parking right next door was also great.

Nice area near Horsens harbor and marinara showcasing factory machines from the early 1900s, workers living areas, textile industry, printing presses, shoe making, Nimbus motorbikes and an old bank. Ice cream, free parking, picnic areas and toilets available.

wow the coolest place ever, they have steamengines, diesel, generators, press machines, even stone press in action, phone history, radio and tv history, schools , workshops, and a nimbus section too, all people you meet there are super friendly and love to talk and show you stuff, much much recommended, kids under 18 are free

Great spot to learn about Danish history and industry.

Nice museum with a lot to see. I especially liked the moving machines.

Interesting place. Seems on some moments as you are in smaller Old Town Aarhus. Cool part is that they actually start some of the machines while visitors are in the museum.

The science museum is free to enter and you could certainly have a great time in here. The museum seems to be more targeted for a younger audience than for adults who aren't parents. Parents will probably have a good time here with their childrens. I have not seen all of it and left early as I felt like it wasn't meant for me but for kids. Therefore I gave a 3 / medium rating as I didn't saw everything. The place is wheelchair accessible and bad walkers, their is an elevator for those who needs it too. There are several staircases throughout the building and rooms each with their own display. Some rooms are harder to access for wheelchairs users. Make sure to visit this place if you have children or early teen with you!

Really nice place to learn with the kids. Lovely roof garden to relax on and best of all it's completely free 😁

The Science Museum is a must-visit, especially for families with kids. Best of all, it’s completely free to enter. What makes it special is how interactive it is—children can press buttons, try experiments, and explore hands-on exhibits that bring science to life. It’s fun, educational, and designed to spark curiosity in a way that keeps kids entertained for hours. A fantastic day out and highly recommended!

This place was incredible- so interactive and creative. My 7 year old gave it 1000/10 and wanted to go round twice. Highly recommend and it’s free!!

This wonderful centre was a surprise gem that we came across during our stopover in Vejle. It's a really thought provoking experience done in a entertaining way as you explore the different zones. I'm so glad we went and the staff were super kind and helpful.

Amazing place, most definitely a place to bring the kids and enjoy.

A wonderful educational place for adults and children, it teaches the rational use of natural resources

Great acoustic, friendly staff and next level shows 🤩

Productions are stunning and definitely worth watching! And that's enough to give them 5 stars even though the seating wasn't that comfortable in my opinion.

Very nice theater with stunning performances way above what you would expect in a city this size. Their musicals are fantastic and sometimes world premieres. Many of the shows are later touring Copenhagen and Aarhus. The building itself is not the very best from audience perspective, as it is rather narrow and deep

Live performance of the highest standards - musical theatre lovers delight!

Have been to Fredericia Teater three times now to see Rasmus Seebach Musical, The Prince of Egypt and now Tarzan. It a great experience each and every time. Thanks.

Coming from New York, I can say this is easily broadway quality and the best theater (value for the money) in Denmark!

Show was great - room was so sweltering hot that I was literally dripping with sweat. Has to be better at that price point.

The restoration of this old castle is unique and worth seeing just for a completely different approach to restoring and protecting a heritage building. Definitely worth visiting.

13th century castle on a hill overlooking the town and the castle lake. It is probably Kolding's most famous landmark. If you want to see the castle from the inside, you will have to spend a lot of money. The entrance fee is quite expensive. You can pay in advance online or on site at the ticket office.

Interesting mix of old and new architecture. The castle was partially destroyed in a fire in 1808 and was rebuilt in the 20th century in a way which preserved the original building but also clearly showed the modern parts. One of the highlights for us was the Flora Danica table service. Just amazing. The princess gowns were lovely. There was even the possibility to dress up as royalty yourself. There is a cafe on site. There is parking near the castle but the castle is also within walking distance from the center of town.

Nice castle, the floral porcelain table ware was amazing. I also liked the replica clothing. The lace making looks very hard.

The Kolding Fortress or "Koldinghus" really is an iconic landmark for the city, It being destroyed back in the 1800's has still had a good restoration. Overall it's a good museum and has a great view on the top with the Hercules Statue remaining intact, it's overall a location worth visiting if you're having a transit through the city of Kolding.

This was under serious renovation at the time we visited. Although looking back at the history it seems to have spent more time like this than not! Was a nice casual look around, the way the modern elements slotted into the existing fabric was nothing short of breathtaking.

Gorgeous building, impressive restorations and a fun corner to play dress-up. This is my second visit but there was a lot more to see than the first time.

Local highlight. Exciting and engaging exhibition that are suitable for all ages. Beautiful location, garden and building. I can’t recommend enough if you’re passing through the area

The internationally renowned museum of modern art, craft and design, Trapholt, is situated in gorgeous surroundings by Kolding Fjord. The museum featuring paintings and sculptures made by famous international and Danish artists. Its a must visit place in Denmark 🇩🇰. Highly recommended.

Trapholt always puts on very interesting exhibitions and Feel me is well worth a visit. Daniel Wurtzel's piece Air Fountain in particular makes the trip exceptional but there are many other wonderful works included which means that you should go. If you have time and spare cash for a visit to the cafe then that's recommended as well. It may seem dear at first glance but you get value for money with good food and sizeable portions. Don't forget to grab a piece of cake if you have room for it (we didn't 😂). After lunch make sure you stick your head out into the lovely grounds which offer rich beds of flowers at the right time of year (we were there in July), and beautiful views of the sea all year round.

I recently visited Trapholt in Kolding with my parents and my girlfriend, and despite not being someone who regularly visits modern art museums, this experience turned out to be a truly pleasant surprise. Trapholt is beautifully located near the water and has a light, open architecture that makes it feel welcoming and easy to explore. The layout of the museum is very visitor-friendly, and it was a joy simply walking through the space. Many of the exhibitions invited a kind of semi-interactive experience, which made the visit feel more engaging and personal. During our visit, we saw two major exhibitions: Michael Kvium – Skyggeteater (Shadow Theatre) and Mie Olise Kjærgaard – Agile Aggressions. Kvium’s work was, as always, thought-provoking and slightly unsettling, exploring the darker sides of human nature through dramatic imagery and strong symbolism. Mie Olise Kjærgaard’s exhibition, on the other hand, felt more abstract and experimental, and it invited us into a colorful and chaotic universe that was both playful and aggressive, in the best possible sense. One of the highlights of the day was visiting the Arne Jacobsen summerhouse, which is an integral part of the museum’s permanent collection. This full-scale house was designed by the famous Danish architect and designer in the 1950s, and walking through it was like stepping into a living design catalog. The house is a unique example of modernist architecture and functionalist design, with every detail—furniture, color palette, materials, and layout—carefully thought out. It showcases Jacobsen’s ability to combine simplicity with elegance, creating a space that feels both practical and deeply aesthetic. For anyone with even a passing interest in design or architecture, the summerhouse is an absolute must-see. All in all, Trapholt offered an inspiring and relaxed art experience that felt approachable even for someone not deeply immersed in the world of modern art. It’s a place I would definitely recommend—and one I wouldn’t hesitate to return to.

Very nice museum, great exhibitions.

A great experience overall. I went with no expectation and knew nothing of the current exhibitions. There was a good selection of art pieces and great variety in styles, concepts and shapes. The tour to the Kubelflex was also something I recommend as it adds to the visit. I spent 2 hours there and covered all available rooms.

Nice visit at Trapholt. And a lovely picnic in the park around the museum, with an amazing view over Kolding Fjord. Our 11yr son also enjoyed the exhibition

Bogense Havn og Marina, located on the northwest coast of Funen in Denmark, is a picturesque harbor combining the charm of the old fishing harbor with the amenities of a modern marina. The marina boasts 700 berths, making it the largest on the island, and offers facilities such as a playground, fitness area, and nearby sandy beach. Visitors can enjoy various dining options, including fresh seafood at local restaurants, and explore attractions like the mermaid statue "Elle" and the Hans Christian Andersen sculpture. The harbor area is also known for hosting events like live music performances and vintage car meets during the summer months. Bogense Marina is conveniently located within a 10-minute walk to the town center and swimming bath.

Cosy and small beach with a lot of opportunities,playing ground for children, free parking, clean toilets and barbecue,grill zones.

What a beautiful place to be!!😍 Everyone should visit this harbor, beach and the pier...it's an amazing place to be. Sit on one af the many wooden seats & enjoy, just like we did💗

Amazing place to see. You can meet crabs as well. Really good and poor place

Big places for big boats just at the entrance to the harbor - easy to enter from the sea side - very cozy habour area and great walking areas around Bogense city.

Nice place to stop with campervan for a night. Electricity, Toilet, Shower and CamperserviceStation available.

A very nice marina. With a nice playground and plenty of places to barbecue

Beautiful cathedral in the centre of the town. First church to convert to protestant in denmark. Very nice place for travellers to rest for a few mintures. Interior very cool and modern compared to old catholic churches.

Beautiful Cathedral in city center. Awesome from all sides. It was not possible to get in, but I went there late evening.

A must see. Light and cosy. You cannot have been in Haderslev without hving seen the cathedral!

Beautiful, a very impressive cathedral. It is clearly wel cared for and it is great that it is still in use after 700 years

Absolutely beautiful architecture. I found it odd that there were tipping booths with mobile pay notes several places though?

The Biggest Church in Haderslev. and a relly beautiful one i Think Leave a comment

Nice church with good background information about the history

Great spot to go for a walk in nature. Choice of either a 2k or 5k path, both with great views and wildlife.

Lots of deer. The paths are a bit muddy, so bring appropriate footwear 👍

It’s a beautiful park and there are spaces for barbecue.

Nice quiet place to be... walk, bike and listening to the nature...

Perfect place for walking, you can see many deers.

Beautiful park with amazing scenery. Unfortunately i couldn't see any deer due to heavy fog and a lot of families with screaming kids, but it was still a great experience. Very clean too. Will definitely come back.

The most beautiful place 🤩

Absolutely an awesome experience! Definitely worth a visit if you're into trains and locomotives. They have around five steam trains and seven large old diesel locomotives, including the MY, MX, and MZ classes. There's also a bunch of other cool trains—some you can even ride! You can learn a lot about the history of the Danish railway, and the staff are very helpful and friendly. In short: The best railway museum in Denmark!

Best museum I’ve been! How can someone give less than 5 stars? Trains that you can board on, detailed descriptions, amazing playground, mini train for kids and grownups, pretend play area with costumes upstairs, clean toilets and changing tables, vintage bus tour that takes us around the town, friendly helpful staff at the gift shop who patiently explained to me the characters and themes of each Danish picture book. Ticket gives you unlimited entries all day; we actually went back for another mini train ride. I can’t wait to come back again!

I really wouldn’t have thought so, but this is a great museum for people of all ages. We began our visit with a tour with the mini train that runs every hour. If you are an adult and visit without kids, I would still recommend that you take the train. It’s an experience in itself! The museum itself is vast. We arrived around midday and ran out of time when the museum closed at 16:00 o clock. I would try to arrive earlier next time to be able to see more of it. There are several sections that are very interesting - ferries for trains, the royal carriages, old steam engines. I would gladly come again. Kids can enter free of charge!

The Danish Railway Museum in Odense was probably one of the most informative and fun railway/train museum that we’ve been to… The museum is shaped like a semi-arch and spans 2 levels along with some outdoor areas. The reason for the semi-arch design is because there’s a turn-table in the middle that is able to bring trains in and out of the premise. This gives the museum some flexibility in rotating its exhibits. Here, you’ll be able to check out some really old trains in the 1800s to the newer ones in the 1900s and even the train used by the Danish Royals. Some of them allow you to board as well, seeing up close what it was like. During our visit, there were 2 special exhibitions... For the full details of our 5 months Round The World RTW travels, visit 2bearbear today!

A good mix of stuff for children and adults. I got there just as it opened and it was quiet and peaceful. My only feedback would be for more platforms to allow closer view of the steam engines, although I understand that it might be difficult with HSE concerns.

A beautiful museum. There's a lot to see and even a chance to board the trains. There's a wonderful puzzle at the end, which rounds off the visit nicely. Definitely plan a visit.

Very fun if you love trains. Kids and adults alike will love this place. The little train you can ride on certain hours was a lot of fun. You can enter most of the trains in the indoor area as well.

Truly magical and indeed very interactive experience. One of the best museum I have ever visited. The story telling,lighting, the ambience everything felt right into the place. I even had a chance to draw and make a silent book for myself which I believe is one of the unique souvenir that I could ever get. I could spent hours and hours without getting bored. I never thought visiting a museum could be this much interesting.

Loved it. Great experience for younger ones and still kept us parents interested. The place tells the story of the life of Hans Christian Anderson. Through the main part of the museum you can use these audio guidebooks which were great at also keeping our 4 and 6 year old engaged. The audio bits were easy to do and didn't last too long. Maybe a minute or two maximum for most (a complaint I have for other places like this is sometimes they drone on and on, but this was a great length and lots of them to do). At the end of the main museum there is this great bit which is more interactive for kids as well. After this there is the children's wonderland which had last of roleplay sections and a lot of great quality dress up stuff. And also they had a craft section as well. Staff were friendly throughout. My only complaint was there were no books in the shop I could see in English. Did seem to have other languages though. All in all great place to visit, particularly with kids.

Probably the biggest tourist attraction in Odense, so definitely needs a visit. Well laid out, with a detailed history of his life first, followed by a wonderland of activities for the kids (thank God they didn't do this bit first otherwise you'd never get the kids round the rest of it!) Well curated, and the audio guide worked flawlessly. TBH I hadn't really heard of the fella, but still enjoyed a couple of hours here!

Welcome to H.C. Andersens Hus! The museum’s thoughtfully designed architecture provides a beautiful backdrop for its incredibly creative and immersive exhibitions. This is a truly remarkable journey that guides you through the entire extraordinary life of a literary giant, allowing us to deeply appreciate the genius behind his tales.

Danish Author 'Hans Christian Andersen' was born in Odense 1805, and is best remembered for his literary fairy tales. He had moved to Copenhagen, Denmark, when he was barely 14, to seek employment as an actor. After being told that he sounded like 'being a good poet', Anderson started focusing on writing. Jonas Collin director of the Royal Theater, personally focused on ensuring that Anderson got serious education. His famous fairy tales include 'The Emperor's New Clothes', 'The Little Mermaid', 'The Nightingale', 'The Princess and the Pea', 'The Ugly Duckling', 'Thumbelina' etc. So much so, that his fascinating stories have inspired ballets, plays, and live-action films. I personally think that 'Sad is the life, which is devoid of furtive imagination, but which can become fruitful, after being a-lit by the lore's of Great Writers'. Since, my travels always leads me to the local Book shops, needless to add that I took the opportunity of rummaging through the racks full of his written works and chose a few to carry them home, to include them in my personal library and ensuring that those deprived of such wonderful fairy tales, will enjoy reading them at galore.

This was one of the most incredible "museum" experiences. It was a creative journey through the imagination of the great mind of H. C. Andersen! So much time and effort has gone into each display, making it colourful, interactive, fun and interesting, all while telling the great story of his life. The audio guide is the most advanced I have personally used, and was done in a way to keep you captivated and moving along the building. A great experience for families and I highly recommend it.

There is something profoundly unsettling, almost metaphysical, about entering the H.C. Andersen House Museum in Odense. This is not a museum in the ordinary sense, but a kind of sanctuary for a soul that wandered through life as an exile, even in the midst of admiration and applause. Here, one is not simply walking through curated rooms but descending into the deep caverns of a man’s yearning: his hunger for love, for beauty, for meaning in a world that so often offered him none. Hans Christian Andersen’s life was one of quiet tragedy. Born into poverty, plagued by physical awkwardness, and possessed of an almost painful sensitivity, he moved through the world with the wide, searching eyes of a child who never stopped longing. And yet, this child grew into a man whose most intimate desires were never fulfilled. It is likely — though veiled in the gentility of the time — that he was homosexual, or at least deeply drawn to men in a way that society punished with silence. The letters he left behind read like confessions: full of yearning, obsession, loneliness. There is no record of requited love. None. And so, he wrote. But not for children — not truly. Andersen’s tales are often mistaken for sweet bedtime stories, when in truth they are parables of suffering, of moral endurance, of love crushed beneath the weight of indifference and fate. The Little Match Girl dies in the cold, her final visions a last rebellion against a brutal world. The Snow Queen is not a villain, but a symbol of ice that forms in the human heart when warmth is denied. And The Steadfast Tin Soldier — mute, deformed, and noble — burns silently in the fire, still standing, still in love, and no one sees. This museum dares to embrace that darkness. It doesn’t flinch. In its quiet corners and haunting visuals, one finds not the fairytale castles of childhood but the long corridors of the soul. It is a Dostoyevsky-style place where suffering reveals truth, and beauty is inseparable from pain. Odense itself is charming, as though frozen in the innocence that Andersen longed for but never found. But here, in this museum, we confront not the child Andersen, but the man: the weeping dreamer in a cold room, writing his way through the void.

Really lovely place and well decorated. Loved the info boards and the cute decorations and themes everytime you went somewhere. You can tell the place/people working there really cares about their Animals and their environment ❤️

A very nice zoo, where they take good care of their animals. Informative signs with a lot of fun facts. The biomes for the rainforest species and penguins are amazing, but bring a cardigan if you want to stay for feeding time in the latter, it's quite chilly (as it should be)!

Super nice zoo, the animals are well taken care of and they have a good time here. The park is nice to walk through, sometimes it is a little impossible to follow the main trail via the map. But that just makes the adventure more interesting. I am totally in love with the king penguins, they are so big! For me I feel that the enclosures could be a little bigger but I am not an expert after too course.

Really cozy place, animals are in a really good condition and have clean enclosures. I would recommend to buy a ticket online, so you don’t have to stand in the queue for tickets :)

Such an incredible zoo! There were so many animals to see and it was clear that they were really well looked after. One of the true highlights of Odense.

Beautiful zoo, the main route to follow is clear, plenty of food/drink stalls, and you had the possibility to walk in (or around) some animal area's to really get close to the animals.

Very nice zoo, especially during feeding time it’s really worth visiting 😮

We hired Claus to do a guided tour and we enjoyed every minute. Knowledgeable interesting capturing and funny. We did this as a group om men and will highly recommend this to other petrol-heads 😉. Thank you 🙏

Do you like cars? Well this is the experience for you. 122-130 rare cars, all with a unique history and adventure in their own. The tour is very well told and very interesting.

Pre-booked tickets only. Amazing and unique car collection. Probably the best in Denmark

Just awesome! If you can manage to get a guided tour it's really worth it! A lot of the cars have such a rich history behind them, and not just model wise, the individuel cars drivers to. Do it. See it.

Amazing place with an outstanding collection. Probably one of the best places with regards to variety, starting from F1 and Le Mans cars through modern supercars all the way to some true classic, there are even movie cars and royal vehicles. The guided tour also adds a lot to it with the stories and explanations. 100% would and will go again and again.

Super cool and wide collection of cars! Such a hidden gem on Fyn and it is totally worth a visit!! I had a great time there and wish one day I will have one of those Super Super cars in my life :D

Beautiful collection of vehicles and a great location for a business meeting.

I loved the experience specially as foreigner got to experience village style house of Europe and traditional construction of different times.

One of the most interesting and enjoyable experiences I’ve ever had. The farm buildings are so full of cool things to see and learn about, I could go back many times. My only comment, and this is not a criticism by any means, is without historical interpreters - the places feels somewhat listless. Granted that takes staffing and money- both of which are hard to come by, but I’d say that this visit made my entire Denmark vacation worthwhile.

A great experience, a small Danish Pompeii of the 1700-1800. Talk with the old people here and there, they really offer great gems on history and knowledge, I finally understood why old danish houses are done the way they were done. Great for kids also. Highly recommended for anyone doing an on the road holiday through Danemark.

It's a cute museum which helps you get a better grip on what life was like on Funen some 150-200 years ago. Especially fun with children. I liked the spin they put on the experience relating things to sustainability and circularity.

Interesting to learn about the life of Danish gamers and villagers in the 19th century. Unfortunately no guides during the week and all tekst is in Danish. You can use the Useeum app for English explanation with every building

A nice way to explore the past. A relaxing atmosphere and super chill farm animals. It's a good way to experience nature and fresh air, see some super interesting old buildings and have some exercise. Lots of place to eat what one brings from home but I'm glad we forgot ours and experienced the restaurant inside

The Funen Village is worth a visit. You travel back in time to see how life was like in the 1800s. You get to go into pretty much all the buildings and get a real feeling how it was like to live in these structures. It’s also pretty cool that they have some farm animals here as well. The entrance to this place is through the modern looking building close to the main road. Parking is plentiful.

Simple but good and clean facilities. Really welcoming atmosphere. No poche and pomp, just very hospitable. Kids (and parent) friendly harbor I would recomment highly.

Beautiful little harbor with places for barbecue and and a small kiosk. Bathrooms are nice and clean too.

Ok

Charming place, clean facilities

Beautiful surroundings

Scenic, good facililities and friendly service.

(Translated by Google) A very beautiful and quiet harbor. Good restroom facilities. There's a covered barbecue area with a gas grill for everyone. Very nice. (Original) Ein sehr schöner und ruhiger Hafen. Gute Sanitäranlagen. Es gibt eine überdachte Grillecke mit Gasgrill für alle. Sehr nett.

Amazing museum, it shows the jail throughout the years and how methods of punishment evolved over time. There is also another section where you get to explore the life of one of the prisoners and what drove him to commit the crimes he committed. Definitely worth a visit if you're in the area.

Awesome exhibition with a lot of interesting historical detail about the Danish prison system in general and the Faaborg Arrest in particular. There's a great iPad activity with a neat crime mystery that will keep the family entertained for a couple of hours. The basement exhibition about a 1905 crime case is also very entertaining.

Fun museum for everyone. Fork out the extra 40 kr for the murder mystery activity if you are bringing kids. It is excellently made.

Nice little history of Faaborg arrest. Don't forget to visit the basement.

Super

Nice check it out... Fun for the kids

(Translated by Google) Exciting to see the arrest and follow the story of a young servant. (Original) Spændende at se arresten og følge historien om en ung tjenestekarl.

Worthy a visit.

Very nice museum for work by Funen painters. Really nice buildings. We'll worth having a guided tour. Unfortunately the café was closed, so not sure how that is.

On a cold winter day, a nice place to briefly escape. Good exhibition. The "reserved" nature of staff (timidness) could be improved to enhance the visitkort experience

Small but very well curated and magnificent pieces

Very fun and nice museum, the upstairs was great!

Beautiful collection of art, some statues but mostly paintings with additional information on colour theory and motives. A good museum for kids.

An important artists colony that were funded by a local canning company tycoon. A lovely museum and interesting collection of paintings and sculpture. About €10 entry. Recommended
