Brabrand travel guide

Brabrand is a town 6 km west of Aarhus which became a suburb of Århus in 1970.
South of the town lies the lakes "Brabrand Sø" and "Aarslev Engsø", which is the largest recreational areas of Aarhus County. The town was founded in the 18th century by means of burning the forest (the name reflects this), initially based mainly on farmers and associated trades.
The town has four distinct districts: Old town to the south by the lake mainly made up of single-family houses. Industrial areas by Edwin Rahrs Vej to the north, and in the eastern end the infamous Gellerup area, a concrete suburb that stands as an example of the 1960's urban development that scars several Danish cities. And finally to the west from the Brabrand lake up to Edwin Rahrs Vej there is also a mix of one family houses, and low multi-family houses. The west part was expanded in 2005 to the west with the new area Helenelyst which is also a mix of one family houses, two-family houses, and 3 story houses. (...) more....
