The renaissance castle Kronborg in Elsinore, Denmark, in the evening sun one summer night. The royal Castle Kronborg, famous from Shakespeare's Hamlet, is situated in the town Elsinore (Helsingør) on the extreme northeastern tip of Zealand at the narrowest point of the Øresund (The Sound), the sound between Denmark and Sweden. In this part the Sound is only 4-5 km wide, hence the strategic importance of maintaining a fortress at this location commanding nearly the only outlet of the Baltic Sea. The castle has for centuries been one of the most important Renaissance castles in Northern Europe and was added to UNESCO's World Heritage Sites list on November 30, 2000. KRONBORG CASTLE’S unique settings can also be hired for conferences, etc. – even outside normal opening hours.
