Kronborg
A place of pilgrimage for Shakespearean scholars from around the world, Kronborg represents one of Europe's most recognizable Renaissance structures and is a World Heritage Site. Built in the 1420s as a stronghold for King Eric VII, the castle shot to fame in the early 17th century when it inspired Shakespeare to use it as a setting for "Hamlet." Follow in Hamlet's footsteps in the soldier's quarters and storerooms, which stretch beneath the castle and contain a famed statue of the legendary Viking chief Holger the Dane. Planning Helsingoer trip won't be overwhelming when you use Inspirock's itinerary maker.

It is a beautiful and well-preserved castle and the "island" on which it resides has gorgeous terrain and views. I just feel the cost of a ticket and the amount of things you can see inside it do not go hand in hand. The exhibition was disappointing to me.

We were short on time so we didn't buy a ticket to go inside. The perimeter is full of interesting things to look at like knolls and cannons. You'll find plenty of coffee shops with chocolates and cool female servers with bangs and thick rimmed eye-glasses.
