Aarhus O: Aarhus

The central reaches of the Jutland Peninsula define much of Central Denmark Region – productive farmland, heath, woodland and towns support an economy linking agriculture, industry, education and services. Aarhus, Denmark’s second-largest city, is the region’s urban focal point on Aarhus Bay, with a working harbour, the ARoS Aarhus Art Museum and Den Gamle By open-air museum. Inland, the Gudenå, Denmark’s longest river, runs through the Lake District around Silkeborg, where forests and lakes contrast with the coast. Viborg, one of Denmark’s oldest cities, adds another historic layer through its cathedral. Discover further points of interest through webcams across Central Denmark Region.
