Den Gamle By in Aarhus is a museum that contains several of historical ‘villages’ reconstructed from different time periods in Denmark.
There are many examples of different types of old doors on buildings. A wood door with a heart carved into it, set in under a steep stairway. At home moon-shapes are carved into outhouses so maybe this is a charming latrine.
A red door in a red building. The buildings are painted with historically-correct coloured paints from that time period.
Wooden door to a shed with some great hinges.
Another cool wrought-iron hinge.
An old latch and a lock that looks a tad newer.
Exterior doors to houses often had extremely decorative hardware.
Decorative brass hinge with lock and door pull. This doesn’t look Danish at all.
Carved wooden door way leading into a two-storey house of an important person in the town.
A simpler doorway in plain old No 33, its only decoration is a horseshoe over the door.
A green interior door to a cupboard. I like the airing holes cut into it – so practical and so attractive.
Another old door with a cut-out that frames an artfully-placed copper kettle.

Oh I so adore you doors for this week. Thanks so much for playing along 😀
Wow, nmice collection of unique doors. Great work.
My fave is the decorative brass lock, but all doors are wonderful!
