History of Kronborg

Kronborg Castle has stood for over 500 years – despite storms, sea battles, and sharp-witted Swedes. Here, kings have held wild parties with an abundance of food and wine, the Swedes have besieged with gunpowder and cannonballs, and the toll collectors have demanded their share of the ships' treasure chests. Behind the walls lie stories of power struggles, love, and war – and perhaps a few secrets still waiting to be discovered.
