Aarhus University Park
Universitetsparken
A university campus of yellow-brick buildings nestled among rolling grassy slopes and oak woods, regarded as part of Denmark's architectural heritage.
The main campus of Aarhus University was designed by C.F. Møller and others. Its uniform yellow brick buildings and tiled roofs blend with rolling grassy slopes, oak groves and a small central lake, and the campus is counted among Denmark's architectural classics. Crocuses carpet the slopes in spring, and the autumn foliage is brilliant. The campus also houses the Natural History Museum and the Steno Science Museum. Entry is free, and it is about a 15-minute walk from the city centre.
