Melhor época para visitar

Come at noon, when the carillon plays a full melody and the view from the tower is at its finest. In winter the viewpoints are open for shorter periods, so check the opening hours in advance.

Dicas para economizar

Entry to the town hall is free; climbing the tower costs a symbolic fee (around 30 DKK). There is no combined ticket for multiple attractions in the city, but a visit to the town hall will set you back just a few kroner.

Sobre

Fatos rápidos: Na torre com 60 metros de altura toca todas as horas um carrilhão transparente com 38 sinos. O edifício foi desenhado pelos arquitetos Arne Jacobsen e Erik Møller e inaugurado em 1941, e as chaves da cidade continuam penduradas no gabinete do presidente da câmara.

Destaques: No cofre subterrâneo, com paredes de betão espesso, repousam ainda hoje os originais das chaves da cidade de 1941. A vista mais bonita sobre toda a Aarhus é do terraço sob a torre, precisamente no momento em que se ouve o carrilhão do meio-dia.

Wear sturdy footwear, as a narrow spiral staircase with 217 steps leads up to the tower.
Photograph the facade from Rådhuspladsen square to capture the symmetrical lines without any distracting elements.
Ask to see the ceremonial hall at the end of the tour; a huge tapestry featuring the city hangs there.
Notice the details on the brass handles and railings; all of them are original from 1941.
