Under Masken

Aarhus, Denmark

Situated in the basement next to the Royal Casino and Hotel, this is a special bar owned by local artist Hans Krull. Krull is a multitalented Danish artist with a zest for travelling and he has decorated every square inch of his small bar with strange wooden masks, artsy pictures and miscellaneous objects from around the world. Krull is a prominent artist in Denmark and you can enjoy some of his finer works by just looking at the three bronze statues next door at the casino or his large whole-wall mural in Fiskergade nearby of a woman kissing a sea gull. On most Sunday afternoons, Krull draws large portraits of people at this place, but it is a bit pricey. Be aware that smoking is allowed here. Happy hour every day from 17-21 and sometimes live music.
