A HISTORY OF DENMARK FROM THE VIKING AGE TO THE 21ST CENTURY

Welcome to Aarhus University’s Open Online Course in Danish History!

The course is suitable for anyone who is interested in the history of Denmark. It is a translation of a course developed for Danish history students in their first year and is produced by historians from Aarhus University. It consists of a general introduction and nine modules, which all include a mixture of text and short films featuring the authors. The material is available in both English and Danish.

The course is freely available online and can be started at any time – whether you want to follow every module, or just take one or two. We recommend that you start with the course introduction before plunging into one of the modules. 

We hope you enjoy it!
