Lindholm Høje, which means Lindholm Heights, is both an important Viking graveyard and an ancient settlement. It is a major Iron Age site. The place was abandoned in the Middle Ages around the 1200s.

Due to its extent, it impresses when you arrive in the area.

The Lindholm Høje cemetery near Aalborg is Denmark's largest cemetery with 682 graves. Graves in the shape of ships, triangular and circles. There is a lot to see and discover.

Women were buried in the round tombs, while the triangular or ship-shaped ones were for the men.
