Viborg

Denmark

One of Denmark's oldest cities, Viborg sits at the heart of central Jutland between two lakes, Søndersø and Nørresø, with a walkable centre well supplied with cafés and restaurants. The city's name traces back to Old Danish words meaning "the sacred place on the hill," and it serves today as the seat of the Western High Court for the entire Jutland peninsula, as well as the administrative centre for Region Midtjylland.
