The town hall in Aarhus (Aarhus Rådhus) was built according to the plans of the Danish architects Arne Jacobsen and Erik Møller. The opening was on June 2, 1941.

The municipality of Aarhus announced an architectural competition in 1936, which Jacobsen and Møller won. The original plans did not initially include a tower, this only found its way into the plans after protests from the population. For its time, the building was considered modern and progressive. It was built almost entirely from concrete and has a glass-roofed atrium inside. The exterior cladding is made of Norwegian marble. In 1994 it was placed under a preservation order.

The town hall occupies an area of 19,380 m², the tower is 60 m high and has a tower clock with a diameter of 7 m in its lower area. The carillon on the top of the tower is controlled by the clock. The three elevators with wooden cabins and an elevator shaft mostly made of glass have been largely preserved in their original form from the 1940s. The wedding hall is also known for its striking wooden paneling.

The tower can be visited for a fee on certain occasions, and the town hall is open to the public on weekdays.
