The exhibitions and interactive spaces tell of everyday life in Scandinavia's largest trading city. Throughout the Middle Ages, Ribe was one of Denmark's most important trading cities, with a major port and connections throughout Europe. The exhibition describes how people lived in medieval Catholic Ribe—from birth to death.

It is the oldest town in Denmark and has over 100 listed buildings. It is like walking through an open-air museum, but it is also somehow very modern. A great little town that is worth visiting.
