    More of the city, including the Instagram famous Old Crane and the area around it. Also, a memorial to the Jews taken from the city by the site of the old synagogue (no longer there).

Seeing how I tried local fish, sheep, etc, I decided to go for the famous northern seafarers dish, labskaus, which is chopped boiled/corned meat mixed with beets and pickles, herring rollmops on the side.
