In Aalborg you can find great souvenirs in almost every shop.
Vi recommend Danish design. Lego can be bought in all toy stores and department stores. Holmegård Glass, Stelton, Royal Copenhagen, Georg Jensen and many other well-known designs can be found in home interior shops and department stores.
In Nørregade you can find the workshop of one of the city's glass artists,
Lene Højlund, where you can see how glass, bowls and other unique items are made. In the charming old street Hjelmerstald you can find
Lange Kunsthåndværk – ceramic and glass. Vibeke Nøddebo, Jens Bangs Gade, creates beautiful jewellery.
If you need a break when doing your shopping, why not enjoy a Danish pastry at one of the city's many
cafés or maybe some herring - and do not forget the 'snaps'.
Aalborg is known as the city of the 'snaps' - you can buy a bottle of
akvavit in any supermarket and at the wine merchants you can find an entire 'gallery' of aquavit - each one different from the others. If you wish to enjoy your drink from real aquavit glasses, these can be found in any home interior shops.
In the Land of Vikings, it is of course also possible to buy mead (a sweet honey drink) as well as viking jewellery at the
viking museum at Lindholm Høje.
Beautiful postcards with motifs of Denmark and the Royal Family can be bought at the post office and in some book shops.
