Ribe , the oldest town in Denmark, is located in south-west Jutland, close to the Wadden Sea National Park. With a history of over 1300 years, the city of Vikings has a lot to offer, being one of the top 10 must-visit places in Denmark. Among the cultural highlights are the oldest church – Ribe Cathedral and, of course, Ribe Viking Museum.
Founded in the Viking Era, Ribe Cathedral has experienced several damages throughout its long history, being restored, expanded and redecorated through the years. As it stands today, Ribe Cathedral is very well preserved and it reflects the different architectural styles.
Denmark’s oldest surviving city started out as an open trading market by the water. Visiting Ribe Viking Museum you can go back in time, step into the world of the Vikings and get an impression of the city’s history.
The atmosphere in the medieval city center with its impressive Cathedral and well preserved half-timbered houses is unique, dramatic but charming. It cannot be described in words, it has to be experienced! Once you visit Ribe, you definetely fall in love with this city!
