Lovely old building. Some exhibitions unfinished. Probably more interesting for younger folk who don't remember as .much! Toilets and cafe.

Great museum with creative exhibitions offering interestig, critical and original views on society regarding women, gender inequality and gender roles. I particularly liked the 'gender blender', which offered a deep insight into the history of women's rights and the state of the art of gender equality in Denmark and around the world.
An informative place to get to know AARHUS a bit more
Located in the old city hall, they had displays on 4 floors when I visited. Ranging from a history of women's achievements and rights movement to a thought provoking piece about the meaning of gender bending burlesque, the displays got you thinking about how you personally think about gender. It was encouraging to see the progress and also disappointing to see the length of time required. Peter Land's exhibit was funny, odd and eerie. Nice way to end the visit.
It's not disability friendly
Great museum about the history of feminism and gender. Has a lot of exhibits for kids as well.
The museum offered interessting presentation of the theme on relatively small area. It's not overcrowded and therefore silent so you can take your time. Recommended. The cafe offers organic beverages and some basics to eat but very relaxing atmosphere and nice service.
This is a small, cosy museum in the old townhall. The building itself merits a visit. The exhibits are small, varied and most are child-friendly, a hallmark of Danish museums. The history of childhood exhibit is mostly for children, but the bilingual exhibition on gender and its fluidity is definitely for more seasoned audiences. I recommend it as a one-off if you stay in Aarhus longer, and 2-hour stay is more than you need to see everything.
