Kronborg Slot Denmark
Kronborg Castle Denmark Opening Hours
During the Danish-Swedish wars, the Swedes occupied the castle from 1658 to 1660, looting everything of value, including its then-famous fountain. Thereafter, Christian V bulked up Kronborg’s defences, but the Danish royals gave up trying to make the castle a home. Kronborg Castle is located at the narrowest point of the strait of Oresund which was the only navigable way from the Baltic Sea to the North Sea. The taxes collected from all the ships passing through financed more than a third of Denmark’s expenses. It is also where.
In compliance with the instructions issued by the Danish Authorities concerning the Corona virus, Kronborg Castle will remain closed from 9th December to 4th January 2021, both days inclusive. The period may be extended. Come back for updates.
