Walk in the footsteps of history

When you take a guided tour with Viborg Museum, the city opens up in a new way. You will hear vivid stories about Viborg's heyday as a religious and political centre, and you will feel the breath of history in the city's streets, squares and in front of the cathedral.

Tours with a theme and edge

The museum's guides are historians and communicators with deep insight into the city. They offer both classic city walks and themed tours with a sharp focus - e.g. on the Reformation, witch trials, medieval royal power or the city's hidden places and strange stories. All tours can be tailored to your interests and curiosity.

An experience for those who want to get closer to the city

If you are on holiday in Viborg and curious about the city's history, a guided tour is the perfect way to get close to the soul of the place. Discover Viborg Cathedral and the atmospheric streets of the Latin Quarter, hear dramatic stories about witch burnings at Nytorv, or discover the small details that you would otherwise easily overlook.

If you are interested in culture and architecture, you can choose a tour focusing on the city's monasteries, cathedral chapter and old town hall. If you just want to enjoy a lively and atmospheric introduction to Viborg, a classic city walk is an obvious choice – with a guarantee of new knowledge and good stories along the way.
