Aalborg, Denmark


Founded by Vikings in the first century, this historic city straddling the Limfjord Sound exhibits evidence of settlements dating as far back as 400 AD. Stroll through Gammeltorv, the oldest town square in the city, or take a tour of Jens Bang’s Stonehouse, a magnificent six-story mansion built in the 17th century. Step back in time to the Viking Age as you explore Lindholm Høje Museum, which includes an outdoor section with nearly 700 graves from the Viking and Iron ages.
