For the family
Autumn holiday at Kronborg
10. okt. 2025—18. okt. 2025
Activities for the whole family during the autumn break
Kronborg is perfect for families with children who want an experience beyond the ordinary. In the castle's deep casemates, you will meet the sleeping giant Holger Danske – but remember, he must only be awakened if Denmark is in danger. Explore secret passages, grand halls, and dark rooms that hide royal secrets and dramatic stories.
