Aarhus Ø – Modern city life by the water in Aarhus

The new Aarhus Ø district is constantly evolving and growing in step with the city. Today, it stands as a symbol of Aarhus' transformation from an industrial port to a modern metropolis with the sea as its neighbour.

Architecture and views

The district is known for its modern architecture, which attracts both professionals and curious visitors. Iconic buildings such as Isbjerget and Lighthouse are shaping a new skyline for Aarhus, while promenades and canals create openness and connections across the district.

The many bridges and paths connect the district's small islands and support an active urban life with views of both the sea and the city.

Life, community and leisure

Aarhus Ø is home to both local residents and creative businesses. The district offers modern housing and offices as well as green spaces and recreational facilities such as a harbour bath, marina and kayaking opportunities.

Here you will also find cafés and cultural offerings that invite both Aarhus residents and visitors to become part of life by the sea – all year round.

A neighbourhood in motion

The development of Aarhus Ø continues. New buildings, urban spaces and communities are on the way, contributing to the area's constant change and refinement. With ambitions for both sustainability and urban quality, Aarhus Ø has become an experimental and inspiring part of the city.
