The castle which Hamlet takes place in is called "Elsinore".
Hamlet is from Denmark. The play takes place at the castle of Elsinore and it is implied that this is the permanent residence of the court and the Danish Kings. If so, his home "town" is Elsinore Castle, which isn't a town at all. They talk about "the tragedians of the city" who have left the city to come to Elsinore. The play is vague about where this city is, just as it is about Hamlet's home town, since it doesn't matter to the way the play plays out.
