You can book a conducted tour of the city, or add extra spice to the city walk or city bus-tour of your choice by including a visit to one or more of the large number of attractions and heritage museums in and around Aarhus. You decide whether you want to include it as part of a tour programme, or whether to make it a separate conducted tour of your chosen attraction.

Aarhus Cathedral
800 years of Denmark's church history on display for you in Denmark’s longest church. Among the treasures are the many fascinating frescos, the triptych from 1479, and one of Denmark's most impressive baroque monuments commemorating landowner and baron Constantin Marselis.
Church of Our Lady (Vor Frue Kirke)
In the Church of Our Lady you can experience more than 1,000 years of history in its three beautiful churches: the Crypt Church, the Abbey Church, and the Church of Our Lady. The crypt under the church houses a piece of sensational history – Scandinavia's oldest vaulted crypt dating back to approx. 1060, forgotten and found again by coincidence. And in the cloister garth you can still sense the footsteps of the chanting Dominican monks.
The Woman's Museum
The Women's Museum in Denmark is one of the few places in the world which is devoted entirely to the subject of the life and conditions of women in recent times. The museum presents changing exhibitions with a variety of themes on the everyday life of women and their art and crafts.
