This is a lovely museum, but it is now closed until fall of 2014 where a new larger museum will open just across the street. But if you are looking for a lovely piece of nature in Aarhus, the forrest around the museum is still very nice and close to the water too :) But don't go there for the... More

A thorough run through Danish history from 4000 bc to app 1000 ad. Especially the temporary exhibition about the scandinavian vikings was impressive!! And a visit to the nearby Moesgaard Beach is recommended in the summertime. I live not far from the museum - but this was my first visit... And last, because the museum is moving to new buildings...

I'm going to be honest, I'm not really a viking history buff, so my review may be biased. The museum, to me, unoriginal. It had display cases with old artifacts and some interactive exhibits. To me, it wasn't memorable in comparison to the dozens of other museums I've visited. Most interesting to me was the Grauballe Man, a mummy preserved... More

See the man found in a bog around 2000 years ago. You can also see many advances in agriculture and in people's lives throughout the years. With the Viking Museum worth the money for the whole family.
