Fyrkat Viking Museum Village

Highlight • Historical Site

Here, near the town of Hobro, you will find one of the best-studied Viking castles in the area. The rampart itself is circular and is located about a kilometer west of the local museum village, which was modeled on the farm of a large farmer.

Fyrkat Viking Fortress

Highlight • Historical Site

Within the present-day Danish realm, we know of five ring castles from the time of Harald Bluetooth. At Fyrkat, an earthwork marks the site of the castle, and right next to it is a reconstructed longhouse.
The Viking farm at Fyrkat consists of nine reconstructed houses from a manor house
from the time of Harald Bluetooth. On selected days in spring and summer, there are lively workshops and activities here.

Bie's Bryghus

Highlight • Pub

Bies Bryghus in Hobro is a tribute to local brewing traditions, producing quality beers and offering a unique experience with beer tasting and restaurant catering.

Centrally located in Hobro you will find the old Bies Brewery, where the two Bie brothers started producing mineral water and later beer in 1841. The brewery was the absolute pride of the city for 140 years and popular beer brands such as Hobbie and Fyrkat became popular across Denmark. In 1980 the first part of the Hobro era ended when the brewery closed.

After several years without local beer, the brewery is brewing again. The brewery has moved into the old horse stable of the former brewery.

Fyrkat, Torvekone, Væbner and Hobbie, these are the names of good beer, brewed with proud local traditions in the heart of Hobro. Here, at the end of the 19th century, the Bies brothers founded the Bies brewery, which is now run by a new small brewery with the same name. The original beer and soda brewery was closed in the 1980s, after which the brewery courtyard was converted into the “Kunstetagerne” art museum, among other things.

Today, the Bies Brewery restaurant is located in the courtyard, where beer is also served. The brewery often expands its offering. You have many good beers to choose from, for example a Hobro IK Superliga beer.

Hobro Church

Highlight • Religious Site

The oldest surviving building in Hobro is the church staircase, dating from around 1100 AD.
The nobles were led to the church on these stairs. The town must have been big enough at that time to build a church.
The current church was built in 1852 based on a drawing by the architect "Bindesbøll", who also designed the Thorwald Museum. A cannonball was "stored" in the base of the museum. This is said to have hit the old church in the Swedish War of 1657-1660 AD.
