Aalborg is the capital of North Jutland, and it is a charming town that stands out among the rest. Young and old alike will enjoy this small city's unique atmosphere.

Museums, ancient monuments and world-class architecture are in abundance here. Explore Jens Bangs Stenhus, Aalborg's largest and most photographed historical site, built in 1624. Admire the Budolfi Church, built in the Gothic style at the end of the 14th century. It consists of a nave flanked by two aisles, a tower, and a porch.

Take a stroll down Hjelmerstald Street, one of the few corner streets containing four houses which are located in one of the few preserved old Aalborg neighborhoods.

Embark on a 400-year journey through 17th century Aalborg with our local guide. Our tour combines historical facts, funny stories, and plays so that you will get a different perspective on Aalborg's history.
