Nyborg Castle

Nyborg Castle, founded in 1170, is one of Denmark's important medieval heritage sites and one of the oldest well-preserved castles in Denmark. The city of Nyborg, where the castle is located, is located in a strategic position. It can retreat to hold the Great Bell Strait, and enter the Baltic Sea, known as the heart of Denmark. It has been the seat of Danish power since ancient times. For about two hundred years, successive Danish monarchs have convened the Danish Parliament (Danehoffet) at Nyborg Castle. In 1282 AD, a constitution of the Kingdom of Denmark was signed at Nyborg Castle, laying the foundation for the Danish government. Today, Nyborg Castle is open to the public as a museum. You can enter the room where the king and the parliament discussed important political affairs and pick up scattered historical fragments.
