Aka, Kronborg Castle - located in Helsingor / Elsinore, north of Copenhagen, Denmark.

The castle that Kirsti talks about after the train ride in "Number the Stars" is called Kronborg Castle. It is located in Helsingor, Denmark, and is famously known as the setting for William Shakespeare's play "Hamlet."
Kronborg was created in 1585.
Lasse Kronborg was born on 1986-04-03.
In Shakespeare's play, the Prince's name was Hamlet. However, there is a real town called Elsinore, with a real castle called Kronborg Castle, built in the fifteenth century and a favourite residence of King Frederick II, who lived there and even watched plays there in the 1570s. His son Prince Christian became King Christian IV of Denmark, one of Denmark's most notable monarchs, and must have lived in Kronborg as a boy. He was a real prince who lived in Elsinore Castle.
Made famous by Shakespeare, Elsinore Castle was the site of his play, Hamlet, and here he sets his story of the Prince of Denmark. The castle that he used for the setting of this play actually exists in the north of Denmark, in Helsingør called Kronborg Castle. The Swedish city of Helsingborg is just across the Strait of Oresund.
Yes there are some famous landmarks in Denmark. There is the famous Little Mermaid statue in Copenhagen. There is Kronborg Castle and there is Amalienborg Castle. There is The Øresund Bridge which connects Denmark to Sweden. There are these and many others.
It's called Elsinore in the play. The real-life city is Helsingør, a coastal city and regional capital in eastern Denmark. It was never actually the capital of the country, as it is in the play.
