Results from the extensive older excavations of Aggersborg at the Limfjord and the previous settlement are being processed for final publication. Aggersborg is the largest of the Danish Viking Age ring-forts, and the project places new emphasis on the so-called Trelleborg fortresses, the reasons for their construction, and their significance for the understanding of the national and international situation during the reign of Harald Bluetooth. The work is done in collaboration with the NationalMuseum. 

Within the project entitled ‘SkjernCastle. An archaeological-historical study. Castle and landscape, manors and families in the Middle Ages and the Renaissance’, excavations, geophysical investigations and landscape studies have taken place over several years at Skjern, in Central Jutland. Results are currently being processed for publication.

As part of an interdisciplinary project centred on the Nørre Vosborg manor in Western Jutland, the department is participating in excavations of the moated sites in the area, and in the investigations of the manor buildings themselves. 

Based on a number of excavations, buildings archaeology and other studies of Danish monastic sites and their surroundings, one project aims at a modern comprehensive and contextualised presentation of such sites, including their development and functions, from an archaeological point of view. Special studies of the friaries/monasteries at Svendborg, Horsens, Øm and Børglum are currently being published.
