Your group stay in Aarhus
Although much less well known internationally than Copenhagen, Aarhus is nevertheless the second largest city in Denmark in terms of population. It is above all a most pleasant destination with its port and traditional houses. According to surveys, Aarhus is indeed the best place to live in Denmark. A good reason to choose it to organize your seminars or school trips. Aarhus airport offers few direct flights. However, you can choose a flight with a stopover or, if not, decide to land at Billund Airport.

To facilitate the organisation of your group stay, Groupcorner has therefore selected the best hotels and accommodation in Aarhus for you.
Aarhus is the oldest large city in Denmark and Scandinavia. It was indeed an important Viking port. Today, it is also the youngest city in Denmark, which testifies to its dynamism. From its past dating back to the 8th century, Aarhus has preserved in its centre charming houses and especially in the cobbled street of Møllestien. However, to immerse yourself in its history, nothing beats Den Gamle By, an open-air museum where the old Aarhus is recreated. Among the half-timbered houses, you will meet people dressed as in the 19th century. An outing that should please the participants in your group. However, Aarhus does not live in the past as shown by its very beautiful districts that have flourished around the port. Contemporary architecture is expressed in a landscaped environment. The most famous examples are the DOKK1 library or the Iceberg, a beautiful apartment building with surprising shapes but perfectly integrated into the landscape. Art lovers in your group will not fail to visit the ARoS Art Museum, a superb contemporary art museum whose Rainbow Panorama, installed on its roof, is one of the symbols of Aarhus, which was chosen to be the European Capital of Culture in 2017. During your group stay, you can choose, according to your desires, between the old Aarhus or the modern Aarhus. Groupcorner has hotels available for groups in the different districts of the city.
