Om
Kronborg slott rundtur
Med denna biljett kan du utforska slottet som Shakespeare kallade Helsingör. Du kan ta dig genom slottet, inklusive balsalen, renässanskapellet, kasematterna och slottsgården. Om du vill kan du välja att ta en guidad tur, som finns tillgänglig på utvalda dagar (kontrollera starttider vid ankomst till slottsbutiken), eller så kan du ta med dina egna hörlurar och lyssna på audioguiden på utvalda platser i slottet.
Kronborgs slott har anor från 1420, då det var en fästning som kallades Krogen. Fästningen, som ligger vid Öresunds smalaste punkt, användes för att kontrollera inloppet till vattenvägen. Mellan 1574 och 1585 lät kung Fredrik II förvandla den medeltida fästningen till det renässansslott som det är idag, även om det drabbades av en omfattande brand 1629 och ockupation av svenskarna 1658-1660.
Shakespeares Helsingör - Hamlets slott
Ingen vet om Shakespeare någonsin besökte Kronborg, men det är säkert att han hade hört ryktena om den dekadenta livsstil som fördes vid hovet. Brittiska spelare besökte Kronborg flera gånger under Shakespeares tid, och de berättade om slottet för den berömde dramatikern.
I dag kan du se liveuppsättningar av Shakespeares största pjäser från både danska och internationella kompanier på sommaren på slottet under Shakespeare-festivalen. För festivalen skapas en utomhusteater med en scen som byggs över vallgraven, med slottet som bakgrund.
Köp biljetter till Kronborgs slott och besök Holger den danske
En sak du inte får missa när du besöker Kronborgs slott är en audiens hos dansken Holger, som sitter djupt nere under slottet bland kryptor och katakomber. Holger är känd av alla danskar, för han sover tills den dag då Danmark är i verklig fara, och han vaknar upp och försvarar moderlandet. Köp dina biljetter nu så att du inte missar denna fantastiska dagsutflykt från Köpenhamn.

Vackert slott
Mycket trevlig prisvärd upplevelse. Fick en härlig tur i slottets alla rum. Bra historielektion om världens äldsta kungadöme. Klart värt ett besök
Aktivitet på gångavstånd i Helsingör
Kul att äntligen ha besökt detta slott som man sett på lite avstånd så många gånger. Bra organiserat och fina utställningar med både konst och kläder från historien.
Att se eller inte se
Ett mäktigt slott vid havet och utsikt mot Sverige. Här inne satt Hamlet och sitter Holger Danske. Passa på att se detta .
En lönsam tur
Här sitter Holger Dansk och vaktar. En staty av en gammal krigare som vaknar till liv om Danmark är i fara. Slottet är magnifikt och Helsingör är småmysigt. Med pittoreska hus, affärer och restauranger. Sedan finns det gott om spiritus affärer.
Trip to Kronborg Castle – A Day with Hamlet
If you’re in Copenhagen, don’t miss this amazing day tour to Kronborg Castle — history, Shakespeare, and the Baltic breeze all in one! I took the train from Copenhagen Central to Helsingør—it’s about an hour each way and cost me around 78 DKK (about $12). From the station, it’s a nice 20-minute walk to Kronborg Castle, a beautiful Renaissance spot known as the setting of Shakespeare’s Hamlet. Inside, the underground prison was pretty cool, especially with the sculpture of the castle’s legendary guardian. The Baltic Sea surrounds the castle, making it a bit windy and chilly, but it adds to the atmosphere. I even bought a pair of “Hamlet socks” — to be or not to be stylish, right? Now I’m excited to finally finish reading the play. It was a simple, memorable trip full of history and that classic Shakespearean vibe.
Great strategic castle that is well preserved
Well worth a trip from Copenhagen. This castle and fort have great historical significance due to the proximity to Sweden and the various skirmishes over the years. It was rebuilt and then later renovated and is now in great condition. Lots of great art and furnishings with very cool educational stuff re: the remaking of old sandstone Greek statues. Don’t miss the big statue of sleeping Danish folk giant Viking Holger Danske. The grounds are also nice.
Historical Experience
A wealth of cultural pearls and architectural land marks mixed with nature and a cool urban atmosphere. Kronborg castle is a UNESCO world heritage site that inspired Shakespeare to write Hamlet, on the ramparts we can see the view of Helsingborg and the ferries. The old barracks are the home to 200 years of Shakespearean theatre tradition as Hamlet stages performance s al year round.
Tremendous.
Stunning, awe inspiring castle in Helsingor. An absolute must do. It's an easy train journey from Copenhagen. Layer upon layer of Danish history and politics is oozing out of every stone in its impressive walls.
Gita fuori porta
Abbiamo visitato il castello di Kronborg con una gita fuori porta da Copenhagen e direi che ne vale la pena (soprattutto facile da raggiungere in treno diretto a Helsingor). Il castello è ricco di storia essendo del Seicento, con alcune repliche di manufatti. Tuttavia, la fama del castello lo lega ad Amleto di Shakespeare e il fatto che sia patrimonio dell'Unesco. Da non dimenticare una passeggiata lungo i bastioni del castello, da cui si può ammirare il piccolo tratto di mare che separa la Danimarca dalla Svezia.
A real castle to explore
A giant castle with the sellers and ballrooms to explore. A must when visiting northern Sealand and Helsingor. Interesting stories are told.
Castello di Amleto
Castello molto suggestivo, soprattutto dall’esterno. Ma anche il giro interno è piacevole con gli appartamenti reali, il grande salone, la piccola sala, le segrete, la Torre e la cappella.
Ser o no Ser
Es fácil llegar solo desde Copenhague entren de ida y vuelta, no es necesario contratar un guía ya que está muy bien señalizado, el recorrido es suficiente y verás mucho arte alrededor además de bajar a los calabozos y estar frente a Holger Danske
Excellent
Très beau château, peu meublé mais chargé d histoire. Visitez les sous sol et montez à la tour voir les ferries traverser vers la Suède
worth the visit
The castle was interesting and the town was in itself worth the visit. You can easily spend a half day at the castle and a half day doing other things (like the maritime museum) in this town.
Excellent Experience
When we arrived at the castle, we first took a walk around the grounds and even went down the waterside so that I could dip my toes into the Baltic. The castle itself was phenomenal, with a lot of great history and artifacts. There were many different areas of the castle to visit and they even had a pseudo art exhibit in the underground portion. It is a bit of a walk from the train station, but highly worth it.
MEDIEVAL CASTLE 😱
I visited Kronborg Castle, and it was a fantastic experience! The architecture is stunning, and the views of the Øresund Strait from the ramparts are breathtaking. Exploring the grand halls and seeing the statue of Holger Danske added to the charm. The guided text was engaging and provided great insights into the castle’s history, especially its connection to Shakespeare’s “Hamlet.” If you’re in the area, I highly recommend checking it out—it’s a beautiful blend of history and culture!
Adorable castle
Kronborg -Hamlet Castle is really one of adorable castle. You would love it. I had amazing time and experience . It is very easy to reach after train just use bus or taxi. Very close. It was enough cold and windy on October. At the top of castle it was raining but it is worth to go.
Worth the trip out of the city
Very easy to get to from Copenhagen, train to Helsinger then a bus (though it’s about a 10 min walk). The castle is very picturesque, it’s a bit of a walk from the road but you get marvellous views. The palace itself is beautiful and the exhibitions are easy to follow. Lots of steps so not so great for those with mobility issues but the stairs are wide and have rope handrails. Different to Rosenborg and is a unesco world heritage site so it’s always nice to tick another one off the list. Worth the trip
Imponerende slot
På Kronborg Slot kan hele familien møde Holger Danske, opleve spændende historie, deltage i levende omvisninger med dygtige slotsværter, se skiftende udstillinger og fordybe sig i involverende historiejagter for hele familien i alle skoleferierne. I mere end 500 år har Kronborg Slot ligget på den strategisk vigtige beliggenhed, hvor Øresund er smallest, så man herfra kunne kontrollere indsejlingen til Østersøen. Det er her, Christian den 4. som barn løb rundt på slottets trapper og igennem de storslåede sale. Og det er her, Holger Danske sover i kasematterne – klar til at vågne til dåd, når Danmark er i nød. I dag er Kronborg Slot åbent for offentligheden og en del af Nationalmuseet i Danmark. Derfor er det muligt at gå på opdagelse på det gamle renæssanceslot, hvor der er tydelige spor efter slottets beboere, fx med gamle indridsninger af navne i murerne, og hvor man hurtigt fornemmer slottets storhedstid i Dansesalen. Her var kongens fester så storslåede, at Kronborg Slot dengang var kendt som Europas vildeste natklub. Efter sigende var det disse fester, der inspirerede forfatteren Shakespeare til at placere det verdensberømte drama Hamlet netop her.
Great time
Great castle. Easy to get round and it was quite when I was there so you could easily read the information boards. Some parts will ve difficult if you have mobility issues as lots of stairs
Very Good Castle Experience
Very nice castle experience. Very enjoyable. Lots to look at and see, nicely set up, looks great for kids too. Take the time to climb the stairs up to the roof of the tower for great views of the town, up the coast, and of Sweden. Great pictures! Very beautiful inside and out. Well worth a visit.
Beautiful Castle on the Headland.
The Castle was great. From the position of it on the straight, you get the sense of it power of days gone by. It was fantastic to tour all the room and the view from the tower was great, with Norway a short cannonball shot away. The walk of the casements was very interesting, we weren’t sure if we were going to find our way out. The grounds an battlements are great for walking also. Definitely worth thr day out.
Sulle orma di Amleto
Spettacolare tour del castello di Amleto! Visita molto organizzata degli interni del castello, si possono visitare tutti gli interni arredati come camere da letto e sala da ballo, le cucine, i sotterranei e salire sulla torre dalla quale è possibile vedere uno splendido panorama della baia circostante, compresa la costa svedese. Si raggiunge comodamente in 40 minuti da Copenaghen. Cosigliatissimo!!
Worth visiting !
Lovely and very interesting place to visit. A lot of information about the connection with the Danish royal Family Helpful staff !
A must for Shakespeare enthusiasts
We were staying in Copenhagen but were keen to see this castle because of its connection to Shakespeare's Hamlet. Our visit formed part of a coach tour which also took us across to Sweden so we had limited time here, although we were able to get a small discount on the admission price via our tour company. Recommendation is that an average visit takes about 2 hours - our coach tour allowed for 1.5 hours but we were able to see a fair amount of the castle during that time, including a quick visit to the gift shop.
Very pretty
Very cool and restored version of hamlet’s castle. Lots of cool information and recreations, it was quite immersive and the grounds were absolutely beautiful. Totally worth a visit.
Worth going through
From the outside, it’s not that interesting, but it’s really worth walking around inside. It’s been nicely restored, and it really feels like a place where people lived and did interesting things — most castles feel more like museums, I find. It’s also worth taking a look around, it’s on the beautiful headland that allowed Danish kings to collect all those tolls that paid for the fancy lifestyle.
Bonito castillo con refrescantes alrededores
El castillo es bonito y la visita del interior es agradable, vale la pena. También son muy agradables las zonas circundantes, con el mar y la visión de la cercana costa sueca. Elsinor es un pueblecito machacado por el turismo, con una calle principal que tiene cierto aire a lo peor de Benidorm. Pero bueno, te puedes tomar una cerveza, si estás dispuesto a pagar su desorbitado precio, para descansar de la visita.
History and beauty
Enjoyed the sight and view from the Castel also some history. Some part under renovation, nice view of Sweden from top and surrounding areas good visit of small town
Una piacevole sorpresa
Il castello è molto bello e interessante per i bambini.....belli i giochi nel chiostro e divertente Amleto che scherza con i bambini.
Muy entretenido
Esta no es la típica visita a castillos y palacios. El castillo Kronborg está en Elsinor, a 45 minutos de Copenhague. Vale la pena el trayecto. El camino alrededor del castillo te permite unas vistas muy buenas de la costa y el mar. El patio interno del castillo tiene algunos juegos interactivos. Dentro del castillo podrás conseguirte a algunos personajes muy bien logrados, sobre todo al propio Hamlet que, si tienes suerte, va a tener una simpática conversación contigo. Recomendado. Al salir pueden visitar el Museo Marítimo justo al frente y comer en el edificio Street Food con varias opciones.
Formidabelt slot med gratis historisk fortælling
Et fantastisk slot som ligger såå utrolig flot med udsigt til Sverige. Vi fik en fantastisk gratis del- rundvisning d 12 august af en meget viden mand som fortalte om slottet og dens historie og meget mere om Danmark og Sverige .
Beautiful castle located by the sea full of history, art and interesting stories.
Beautiful castle located by the sea full of history, art and interesting stories. Easu access by boat from Sweden or train from Copenhagen.
Captivating guide and castle
Visited as part of my Copenhagen Card purchase. Fortunately, I joined an English language tour with a captivating guide. Lively, humorous history of the castle and links to the setting of Hamlet. He handled the movement between rooms seamlessly. Great train system to take you to the town. A short walk to the impressive castle. Well worth the trip out.
Definitely worth a visit
Kronborg Castle originally built between 1574 & 1585 by Frederick II all but the chapel was destroyed by fire in 1629, ironically its reconstruction was funded by Christian IV the same King that years later could not afford to reconstruct his own castle. Unlike Frederiksborg castle this one is laid out simply and more like it may have been in the day making it easy to imagine how they lived. The cask-mates are worth a visit as is the walk around the outside between the sea and the ramparts getting great views of the castle and Sweden just across the channel.
Hamlet's Castle
This is Hamlet's Castle, located on a strategic spot along the Sea. Supposedly built for protection and to collect taxes from passing boats. It is surrounded by a moat and gardens. We took a long walk around it and along the waterfront. Lovely.
Recomend
Very interesting and historic castle. Well maintained and presented, with interesting rooms and items. Information boards presented in Danish & English. Staff were friendly & helpful, speaking good English. Also nice to just wander around outside the agtes. Make sure to wear stable shoes as the underground areas are dark & uneven.
Great Daytrip from Copenhagen! Worth it
Kronborg Castle, Helsingør Day trip time, although we wanted to drive further but got prevented! However the stop in Helsingør was totally worth it, about 50 minutes from our place in Copenhagen, totally worth the drive! 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. It was inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2000. (Source @wikipedia) A 17th century castle build by the Frederic the 2nd, for his wife Queen Sophie of Mecklenburg(he was 38 , she was 15), he was infatuated by his wife he build her the dream castle so to speak! Little anecdote, looking at the writings inside the Church/Chapel it was all in German, after I inquired about that, seems in their days the Nobility in Denmark would converse in German! Interesting! Lovely walk around the whole area, impressive! Enjoy! #thetourist #alifetimetrip #copenhagen #denmark #helsingør #kronborgcastle
Loved this castle
Drove here from Fredericksburg which we had visited first. Really preferred this castle- it looked more like a castle than a palace and the history was great. We did not do a tour and still felt like we learned a lot. The actors playing Hamlet and his friends are great and really get into character and will pose for photos with you.
Nel castello di Amleto
Suggestivo il castello e molto ben localizzato, interessante anche la visita interna sopprattutto la parte dei sotterranei molto ben conservati e molto sviluppati
Awesomeeee
One of the most beautiful castles we have seen. The view to the sea is to die for. Really amazing experience that I recommend.
Interesting history
Worth a visit. Take a guided tour to hear the history - a key part of Danish royalty and the importance of the location to guard against attackers.
Geschichte zum Erleben nah
Die Kronburg ist eine hervorragend gut erhaltene Burganlage. Im Innern können die Repräsentations- und Wohnräume ehemaliger Könige besichtigt werden. Die Beschreibungen in den Räumen sind sehr anschaulich. Der Gang in die Kasematten Lohnt sich vor allen Dingen zum Gruseln. Es ist dort sehr dunkel und deshalb etwas unheimlich. Der Eintritt ist bis 18 Jahre frei. Erwachsene zahlen 125 DKK.
Abenteuer im Schloss
Die Räume sind zwar weniger prunkvoll als die umliegenden Schlösser, aber gerade das macht Kronborg so besonders. Man kann im Schloss einiges ausprobieren und die dunklen Kasematten sind für jung und alt ein Abenteuer, das durch die tolle Ausstellung zu Emotionen abgerundet wurde.
December 2023
Interesting place to visit. The underground section was amazing. Would definitely visit in winter, looks amazing with ice and snow.
Hamlet and Vikings
Simply amazing, and the place to visit while on Helsingør. It's not only the castle that inspired Hamlet, but it's full of story, amazing architecture, art, and history. Words don't make it justice
Imponente
Castello imponente costruito a nord di Copenhagen sul mare, c’è tanto da vedere sia dal castello stesso che le varie costruzioni presenti. Necessita di 3/4 ore
Un Bel Castello che ha ispirato anche Shakespeare
La visita al castello è stata come un viaggio nel passato tra le mura medievali, i saloni sontuosamente decorati, le torri imponenti e i cortili spaziosi. Sembrava di essere davvero all'interno di un racconto epico. La vista panoramica sullo stretto è molto bella, con la Danimarca da una parte e la Svezia dall'altra. Il punto culminante della visita è stato il salone del trono, dove si dice che il leggendario principe Amleto di Shakespeare abbia fatto la sua famosa comparsa. Un'esperienza davvero bella consiglio se siete in Danimarca di andarlo a vedere!!
Castello da favola.
Un meraviglioso castello nel nord della Danimarca, che guarda alla vicina costa svedese. Famoso per rappresentare l'Amleto di Shakespeare, e per ospitare nei sotterranei la statua di Ogier il Danese.
Great experience with a lot of history
A well looked after castle full of history. It was well laid out and easy to navigate around. I was there on a bad day so the views weren’t so great, but I enjoyed it nonetheless. Being in the casements by myself was also completely terrifying…. never moved so quickly in my life.
