Aabyhøj

Aabyhøj is a district in the western part of Aarhus, Denmark, stretching across the hills above the old village of Aaby on the Aarhus River. The name comes directly from this geographic setting. While the neighborhood consists mostly of relatively modern buildings dating from the period after the Industrial Revolution, you can still see the charm of the historic village center in the southeastern part along the riverbanks. With around 11,000 residents, the area also has a strong sporting tradition, including the soccer club Aabyhøj IF and the basketball team Aabyhøj Basketball.
