Why Aarhus Cathedral matters
Aarhus Cathedral is dedicated to St Clement, patron saint of sailors, and rises over the old centre of the city. The interior is bright and plain, with medieval wall paintings still visible. It is a calm stop within the Latin Quarter and a good place to get your bearings.
Talking points
- It is dedicated to St Clement, patron saint of sailors.
