Housed in a modular, marble building designed by the great Finnish architect Alvar Aalto, Kunsten is Aalborg's museum of modern and contemporary art. The building's light-filled interior complements a fine collection of predominantly Danish works.
Kunsten will reopen after major renovations in October 2015 (before then, you can see some of its collection inside the train station). Check the website for opening hours and prices.
To get to Kunsten, take the tunnel beneath the train station, which emerges into Kildeparken , a green space with statues and water fountains. Go directly through the park, cross Vesterbro and continue through a wooded area to the museum, a 10-minute walk in all. Alternatively, take bus 15.
