Strøget

The 850-meter pedestrian zone connects the central station square with Åboulevarden street, forming the primary retail corridor of Aarhus.

The transformation of Strøget into a vehicle-free zone marked a significant shift in urban planning, prioritizing pedestrian accessibility in the city center.

Local musicians and street performers contribute to the street life throughout the year, with special performances during seasonal celebrations and festivals.

The street contains numerous benches, water fountains, and rest areas distributed along its length for visitors to take breaks between shopping.

During December, a canopy of lights creates an illuminated ceiling above the street while vendors sell traditional Danish roasted almonds.
