Aalborg Airport Car Hire with a Debit Card
Car hire with a debit card at Aalborg Airport is now available! Aalborg is a large city built upon the narrowest point of the Limfjord, making it a hugely important port for Denmark both today and throughout history. Dating back to over a thousand years ago, the city actually has Viking origins, with a large Viking settlement in the area from the 9th-11th century. This settlement then slowly evolved into the city we know today, serving as a crucial port for trade between Scandinavia and the Hanseatic League. The city has also been known as an industrial powerhouse through the 20th century, becoming known as “the city of smoking chimneys” in the 1960’s. This is changing in recent years though as Aalborg shifts to a more service based economy, with the area gentrifying and increasing in tourism.
Aalborg is a perfect place for a weekend getaway, and now is it the best time to do it before it becomes a tourist hotspot! The city is full of old historic buildings built in the traditional timbered Scandanavian styles, such as the magnificent Jens Bang’s house, a five-storey Renaissance mansion, or Aalborghus Castle, a 16th century royal residency. For more modern architecture you also have the Utzon Center, the last building designed by the famed architect Jørn Utzon, the mastermind behind the Sydney Opera House, and the imposing House of Music building. Other popular attractions include the Viking burial site Lindholm Høje with it’s beautiful stone circles, and the famously clean Limfjord harbour baths.
Aalborg Airport is based just 4 miles northwest of the city, and sees over a million passengers each year. With car hire desks in terminal, collecting your rental car couldn’t be any easier.
