Århus - Viking Museum
Near the Århus Cathedral, at No. 6 St Clemens Torv in the basement of a merchant bank, will be found the Viking Museum (Vikingemuseet). When excavating for the foundations of the present bank in the 1960s builders stumbled on remains of ramparts with which the Vikings had surrounded their little settlement 1,000 years earlier. In the museum can be seen a reconstruction of the ramparts, a typical house of the Viking period and tools used by these first inhabitants of Århus.
