About Den Gamle By Open Air Museum

The finest open-air museum in Scandinavia — 75 historic buildings from all over Denmark relocated to a 12-acre site in Aarhus and reconstructed as a living town from 1864, with costumed staff, working bakeries, craft workshops, and a genuine sense of what Danish life was like across three centuries.
