Aarhus is home to ARoS Aarhus Kunstmuseum, one of Scandinavia's largest art museums, with a collection spanning Danish art from the 18th century to international installations. The visual arts landscape is further defined by Kunsthal Aarhus, one of Europe’s oldest arts centres, which hosts contemporary exhibitions of painting, sculpture, and photography. Other venues like the archaeology-focused Moesgård Museum and cultural centres such as Godsbanen also contribute to the city's diverse exhibition scene.
