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. Welcome to Kronborg Castle. 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.
