Aarhus, Denmark

The Old Town in Århus (Den Gamle By in Danish), is an open-air village museum consisting of 75 historical buildings collected from 20 townships in all parts of the country. The museum buildings are organized into a small village of chiefly half-timbered structures originally erected between 1550 and the late 1800s in various parts of the country and later moved to Aarhus. The village itself is the main attraction but most buildings are open for visitors; rooms are either decorated in the original historical style or organized into larger exhibits of which there are 5 regular with varying themes. There are several groceries, diners and workshops spread throughout the village.
