 ne of the most important Renaissance castles in northern Europe, Kronborg sits at Denmark's northern tip—a mere 2.5 miles (4 kilometers) across the water from what once was arch enemy Sweden. Kronborg's main yard, just beyond the mullioned windows, is huge—befitting the grandeur of the castle, which burned down in 1629 and was quickly rebuilt. Today's visitors can tour the palace, visit the Maritime and Trade Museum located on the first floor, and spend some time in the extensive catacombs.
