In Hamlet's Footsteps
See Kronborg through Shakespeare's eyes and step into a world of drama, power, and mysteries. On this tour, we take you back to Shakespeare's time, when Kronborg was filled with extravagant parties, intrigues, and royal dramas.
We will show you around the castle which worked as Shakespeare's inspiration for the play “Hamlet — Prince of Denmark” and tell you about a time when Kronborg was notorious for parties, power struggles, and royal intrigues. We will take you through the magnificent halls and the secret corners, where kings and queens lived their lives with both highs and lows. You will gain insight into the real world that inspired one of the greatest literary dramas in history. And who knows, maybe we will find out what Hamlet really meant by 'to be or not to be'?
