Randers

Right from small, cosy cobblestone pedestrian streets, you can head towards the modern Østervold, with art and culture, while passing quite a few bigger and many more small shops selling all kinds of produce. With Denmark's longest pedestrian zone, Randers has it all, and its stores are surrounded by small cafes and cosy restaurants as well, so that a shopping break is already planned in advance.

Only 5 minutes from the town centre, Randers Storcenter is probably one of Denmark's cosiest malls, and a great experience for the entire family. While it is quite easy to navigate your way around within the centre's large selection of attractive stores, do not worry when getting lost as any of the 56 different stores will most certainly keep you busy, and happy as well.

Right in the heart of Randers, in Houmeden, within an age-old grocery store from the 16th century, this shop offers a huge variety of clothing, accessories and jewellery from most distinctive brands. Head here for admiring both its great appearance and its wide offer, and a great service on top.

Finderiet is a recycling secondhand and antique shop that is driven by the desire to protect the environment, to found a reusable store with exciting and always surprising finds, and to create flexible jobs by employing people with reduced working capacity. Head here and just have a look around, and you will most probably find something unique that you will really want to take back home.

Around 20 km east of Randers, in Allingeåbro, Galleri Grevelsgaard is committed to the idea of establishing a gallery for art and crafts for all. While most of the artwork by more than 50 artists – from steel and glass sculptures to handicrafts in ceramics, wood and enamel – are out for sale, those who just want to surround themselves with beautiful things for a while are also highly welcomed, and will likely be most pleased.
