About us

Welcome to Kongernes Jelling

Right here, the story of Denmark began

Denmark was born right here in Jelling, in the heart of Jutland. More than a 1.000 years ago, Danish viking kings built great monuments of their power, faith, and kingdom. Today, you can follow in the footsteps of these kings and witness how this great story of a united Denmark still lives on today.
