Tranekjaer Castle
The retired Count showed us around in the castle
In order to withstand cannon ball fire the walls were several meters thick.
View from the castle. Originally the castle was build by the Danish king to protect Denmark against German pirates. At that time the castle was surrounded by the sea and wetlands on three sides. Later the area has been drained and used for agriculture.
