The Iceberg (Isbjerget)

Isbjerget

A group of white, jagged apartment blocks in Aarhus's new eastern harbour district, shaped like floating ice and a favourite stop for contemporary architecture fans.

Completed in 2013 and designed by CEBRA, JDS and other architecture firms, The Iceberg is made up of four white apartment blocks whose rooftops rise and fall like icebergs, with blue glass balconies. It is counted among the world's best-known contemporary residential buildings. The building is private housing, so you can only admire it from the outside and along the seafront promenade. Stroll here alongside the nearby harbour bath and the eastern waterfront. It is about 15 minutes from the city centre by light rail or bike.
