Viborg was originally called Wibjerg, meaning “sacred hill.”

Just like other cities in Denmark, Viborg is also home to many historic churches and significant artwork. Two of the top tourist destinations are the Asmild church and the church of the Southern Parish. Hald Hovedgard is the most popular historical museum of the city. The Hvolris on the other hand is also an archaeological site that displays pre-historic exhibits. Another historical museum is the Regional museum.

Other than pre-historic exhibits, it has statues, sculptures and a fountain. And surprisingly it has a market and shopping area too. If you want a new experience Monsted is the place to go. It exudes industrial attractions, a factory museum, mining and geological attractions, as well as tunnels and scenic small town villages.
