The ticket includes both admission and a guided tour

Come behind the locked doors as we unveil the history of Kronborg. 600 years of secrets await you.

Tie your shoes, hold on tight to the handrail and follow inside the thick walls of Kronborg, up winding stairs, down into dim cellars, and into dusty attics. Because it is deep in the corners, far from the public spaces, that the stories hide. Those about kings' power plays, queens' private lives, rare craftsmanship, and cannonballs that flew through the roof. Our skilled castle hosts will guide you around the castle and through the narrative – it's almost like being there!
