Aarhus Central Workshops, Railway maintenance facility in Central Aarhus, Denmark
The Aarhus Central Workshops complex includes a main building and smithy near the Aarhus Central Station, featuring industrial architectural elements from different periods.
Built in 1862 by English company Peto, Brassey and Betts, the workshops became Denmark's primary train repair facility for the Jutland and Fuenen regions.
The Danish Heritage Agency granted protected status to the workshops in 2005, recognizing their significance in Denmark's industrial and transportation development.
After ceasing operations in 1990, the renovated buildings now function as venues for conferences, exhibitions, and commercial activities in central Aarhus.
The workshop complex peaked with 1,850 workers in 1949, maintaining half of Denmark's 750 locomotives and trams during the 1930s.
