'Monsters - Beastly beings with big emotions'

Experience the popular monsters at Kronborg Castle - the exhibition has been extended until fall 2024!

Beneath the castle ramparts - in deep corridors and dark rooms you can meet monsters of the past, created by multi-artist Shane Brox from recycled materials. Meet the love-hungry giant squid Kraken, the fearsome fly swarm Beezlebub or the lonely dragon, among others.

These are monsters that people have always been convinced existed - in the dark shadows of the night, in the depths of the sea - in places where they couldn't see and where their imaginations ran wild. Monsters who could hurt people, spread fear, misfortune and death, and who gave body and form to everything that could not be understood, but which was part of everyday life - even during the 500 years Kronborg Castle has existed.

Remember, as always, we have free admission for children and young people under the age of 18.

The exhibition runs until fall 2024. Read more about the story behind the exhibition here.
