Kronborg Castle has stood for over 500 years - despite storms, sea battles and sharp Swedes. Here kings have held wild parties with an abundance of food and wine, the Swedes have laid siege with gunpowder and bullets, and customs officers have claimed their share of the ships' treasure chests. Behind the walls are stories of power games, love and war - and perhaps a few secrets still waiting to be discovered.
