All about Kronborg (Private tour)

We move through the grand chambers and magnificent halls where the court feasted, intrigues flourished, and history was written.

On this tour, you will experience all the highlights from Kronborg's 600-year history – from great love stories and wild parties to bloody wars, greedy enemies, and a fire that nearly reduced it all to ruins. The tour brings you close to some of the castle's most colorful characters – not least King Frederick II and Queen Sophie, who lived amidst power, luxury, and tumult.
