Overview & History

Denmark's largest art museum, a 10-level cube rising from Aarhus's harbourfront, holding Danish art from the Golden Age to the present alongside major international contemporary works. Its single most recognisable feature is 'Your Rainbow Panorama' — Olafur Eliasson's 150-metre circular glass walkway encircling the roof in every colour of the rainbow, offering a 360-degree view over the city and bay.
