Our botanical gardens are a nice visit too. They are situated right by Den Gamle By.
I'll be honest, compared to some other botanical gardens in europe, these aren't top shelve - but it's nice none the less and there is a great outdoors playground in the park for the kids.

Art museum in the top tier.
This museum is a must visit.
Inside the architecture reminds one a bit of the Guggenheim in NYC, but more edgy and hard, without organic curves.
The top view with it's rainbow colors presents aarhus in a 360 panoramic view. Even if you're not into art, this is a great place to visit.
