Experience the castle at twilight and explore behind doors that are normally locked. On this evening you'll get the spooky tales of the dark castle.

When the lights go out in the royal apartment, guests leave the castle and night falls over Kronborg, our guide is ready to take you behind the closed doors. Kronborg after hours hides secrets, dark corners and eerie tales that come to life in the twilight. On the tour through the darkened castle, we dive into some of the most dramatic chapters of Kronborg's history - hear about slave revolts, wars, tragic love and ghosts that still haven't found peace. We end the evening in the old castle kitchens with a glass of port and a classic rum ball - the perfect ending to calm the nerves.
