The tower has Northern Europe's longest outdoor elevator, so the trip to the top is an experience in itself. When you finally get up, the beautiful view can be enjoyed ad libitum. And you can conveniently have a bite to eat in the tower's own bistro.

The Aalborg Tower

Other things to do in Aalborg

Kunsten – Museum of Modern Art in Aalborg is a modern art museum, an experience house and an architectural gem in itself. Created by the Finnish architect Alvar Aalto in collaboration with his wife Elissa Aalto and the Danish architect Jean-Jacques Baruël. Although the museum has existed since 1972, it still stands out today - not least thanks to the architects' modern thinking and thus the unique architecture.

Museum of Modern Art

Kunsten – Museum of Modern Art in Aalborg is an architectural masterpiece by Alvar and Elissa Aalto, showcasing Danish and international art from the 20th century to today. Explore five exhibition halls and unwind at Brasserie Kunsten, overlooking the Sculpture Park.

Rent a GoBoat and have a very special experience with your loved ones. From the boat you can enjoy the city and the harbour, where you can sit up to 8 people in the boats, and you don't need any proof or experience to sail.

GoBoat Aalborg

Rent a GoBoat in Aalborg for a relaxing and eco-friendly trip on the water. No license is needed—just bring up to eight people, enjoy food and drinks around the picnic table on board, and explore the harbour quietly with electric motors and stunning city views.

Shopping in Aalborg

Aalborg offers shopping for every taste and budget, from small specialty boutiques to major department stores. Explore Bispensgade and Algade for unique finds, visit Salling for top brands and the scenic rooftop view, or enjoy Magasin Aalborg’s elegant Scandinavian design and curated shopping experience.

Aalborg Zoo

At Aalborg Zoo, giraffes roam with zebras and antelopes, polar bears swim, and lions roar across the park. Home to 11 of the 12 most popular zoo animals—including Denmark’s only Borneo orangutans and Asiatic lions—the zoo lets visitors explore diverse habitats and even walk among kangaroos in open enclosures.

Near Aalborg lies one of Denmark's unique historical monuments, Lindholm Høje. Two landmark historical eras meet here and, due to the northern Jutland climate, have been preserved for posterity.

Museum Lindholm Høje

Just outside Aalborg, Lindholm Høje offers a rare glimpse into Viking life. This well-preserved burial site, uncovered after centuries under drifting sand, features stone settings and artefacts displayed at the Lindholm Høje Museum, where visitors can explore reconstructed Viking houses and daily life.

Explore Aalborg

The Aalborg Tower is one of Aalborg's landmarks and at least the tallest. Here you can enjoy the beautiful view of Aalborg in peace and quiet. Take the elevator 55 meters up and enjoy a 360-degree panoramic view. The tower has Northern Europe's longest outdoor elevator, so the trip to the top is an experience in itself. When you finally get up, the beautiful view can be enjoyed ad libitum. And you can conveniently have a bite to eat in the tower's own bistro.

View for all

In the bistro, there is room for up to 50 diners, but fear not, there is enough view for everyone. The 360-degree panoramic view from the top of the tower gives you the opportunity to see the busy everyday life of Aalborg in the middle of forest and water, far from stress, hustle and bustle and roaring traffic.
