Marselisborg Castle — Attraction in Aarhus Municipality

We visited Marselisborg Castle during a one-day stop in Aarhus while on a cruise, and it ended up being one of our favorite places we saw all day! Getting there did require some effort—we waited quite a while for a bus and then had to walk over a kilometre—but it was absolutely worth it.

Tho I'd warn families with children that didn't have the "bees and flowers" talk yet, as there's a interesting statue inside the rose garden at the far end of the...
