A different Denmark - Going back to the past

Our last destination on Tuesday was Ribe:

This is Denmark’s oldest town. According to Wikipedia,

The town has many well-preserved old buildings, Ribe Cathedral, and about 110 houses are under Heritage Protection. Denmark’s oldest town hall is found on the town’s Von Støckens Plads. The building was erected in 1496, and was purchased by the city for use as a town hall in 1709.

And of course, there were roadworks again! It took us quite some time to get to the cathedral and to find a place to park the car. And then we saw that the building was undergoing renovation works and it took us 5 minutes to find the entrance!

But I did manage to get some nice shots of the exterior.
