Tips from the Community

September 14, 2025, Viborg Cathedral

Viborg Cathedral is a magnificent Romanesque church that stands as a central landmark in the city. While the current building is largely a 19th-century reconstruction, it is renowned for the incredible frescoes by artist Joakim Skovgaard that adorn its interior. These vibrant paintings tell the story of the Bible and are a truly stunning sight to behold. It's a powerful and historically significant place that is well worth a visit.

Newly built overnight site in Arnbjerg with new shelters, there is also space for tents, but no water. The location is very close to town, but quiet.
