Do you know the fairy tale of the princess on the pea? It was written by Denmark's most famous writer, Hans Christian Andersen. He was a friend of the Duke of Augustenborg. Some of Andersen’s tales he wrote in the castle‘s park, sitting under a linden tree. Its remnants remain even today. You can have a seat under it. Maybe a good story comes to mind, as you sit here? However, the castle has not been inhabited by royalty for a long time. Instead, it was used, for example, as a hospital. Look behind the whole story in the mini museum at the bell tower. Another part of the castle is home to the castle‘s church. Are you curious about the wide aisles? They were needed that wide, or else the women with their big dresses would not have fit through.
