What travellers are saying
- artha R3 contributionsIt was one of the places I enjoyed most in the region. Even my friend who doesn't like museums loved it here. Very good. There were explanations in English. I recommend you to come here.Written 10 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Timbo3765Pershore, UK657 contributionsVisited here while on a cruise to Denmark. Bit like the Black Country Museum/Beamish in the UK. Really quaint old buildings, cars, displays in the shops etc. Well worth a visit but young kids may get bored. Really old fashioned cafe with some nice cakes to try.Written 16 September 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Negin KOdense, Denmark62 contributionsRon mueck’s art completely enchanted me. The display of detail in his works is mesmerizing, I can stare at the details of her work for hours…

I can’t believe this is free to just walk around and stay as long as you like. Personally, an hour is plenty here but it is a beautiful place to see.Written 28 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Julie J16 contributionsKnown in English as 'the occupation of Denmark museum'.
What an amazing museum. Never knew much about the occupation, tend to hear how it was for Belgians and French, this highlights how equally awful it was for the Danes and the incredibly brave Resistance members.
Learnt so much from this small museum.
English available on displays and in a book provided by staff (volunteers).
The ID CARD biographies was very informative and moving.Written 16 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

For me it was less than 30 mins. Entry price is perfectly proportionate so worth it.Written 15 August 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- ward27342Dubai, United Arab Emirates351 contributionsHaving exhausted shopping and with time to kill before the train we stumbled across this gem of a museum. It was really interesting and very well maintained there appear to be so many exhibits but I think that is because with restricted space everything is on display. I did like the comic touch of small teddy's appearing in so.e of the exhibitsWritten 3 December 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- tourguide050Adelaide, Australia71 contributionsI am so glad that it found this interesting and informative Museum. It takes you through the Development of Women’s Rights in Denmark from early days.
It highlights those special events and the women involved.

I wouldn’t say this needs to be a top Aarhus destination for tourists, but it’s nice for a rainy day or if you happen to be in the area.
The museum is small but well done. About half the signs also have English. The room on scientific principles had a number of hands-on activities. There’s a small but nice medicinal garden as well. The lockers in the cloakroom were free.Written 25 June 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Overtaci lived there for almost 60 years and created many Objects of art. All with Basis in his imagined world.
At the same place you can see how patient of 1. and 2. Class were treated!
If you want to visit you must hurry because it s going to be move very soon.Written 15 July 2018This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I've been in many other paid viewpoints in my trips - its actually something i Love doing - , so when I read about this one wanted to go give it a try.
I paid DKK 149 (aprox 20 euros) and the lovely staff advised me there is an exhibition that is part of the ticket.
I Did that first, its a small room in a basement with screens and decorations educating people about the bay area of aarhus and its bio diversity , with an attached app lots of pointing and reading QR codes(nothing memorable, quite honestly, maybe for families with kids or if you are really invested in learning about the bay and can't wait to see it on youtube).
Then, I went to the viewing platform, on the 43rd floor, via the super fast elevator,and it was... underwhelming.
It was basically a balcony with tall glass windows, with view to the city.
The views are not panoramic - I was hoping for 360 views - as its located only in one side of the building, and some of the angles were not as visible as there seemed to be some maintenance going on and there were machines covering it up, after 5/6 minutes in I snapped some nice pictures and left.
Are the views nice? yes.
Is the experience worth the price? No.
I would recommend you to save the money and go to one of the museums and skip it, its very overpriced,
This would be a definite yes i the price was around 100 DKKWritten 12 June 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
