Ghost walk (guided tour in English)

At this special ghost city walk blood-dripping stories from the city’s past will be told – from the executioner’s work on Gammeltorv to witches, werewolves, and ghosts.

On the tour around the city, the horror is therefore guaranteed to be waiting around the next street corner, when you are led through the dark and spooky streets, while stories from the Aalborg of the past are told.

You will, among other things, go back to the beginning of the 17th century, when everyone believed in witches and trolls. Peder Poulsen saw with his own eyes through a window a gathering of witches who performed a special witch ritual. At least that’s how the story goes. However, we do know for a fact that Peder Poulsen’s testimony later contributed to Dorthe Jensdatter Kjærulf being convicted of sorcery – and in 1620 she was burned at the stake as a witch.
