An hour up north by train from Copenhagen central station you'll find the Castle of Kronborg.

Kronborg is a castle and stronghold in the town of Helsingør, Denmark. Immortalized as Elsinore in William Shakespeare's play Hamlet, Kronborg is one of the most important Renaissance castles in Northern Europe and was inscribed on the UNESCO's World Heritage List in 2000.

In Denmark we had a Christmas show of 24 episodes that featured the mystical history of the Castle and it legende Holger Danske, who was a hero es well as the history of Hamlet.

This means that every millennial or Gen Z loves this Castle for more than its beauty.

This is a sight we don't think anyone should miss out on as it is such a unique place to vist.
