Spottrup Borg

About

Spøttrup Castle is the closest thing Denmark has to a real medieval castle. Surrounded by the enormous moat, it is beautifully located by Spøttrup Lake. The castle’s strong defences have kept the enemy at bay over the yars, and the castle has never been occupied. The castle has a beautiful medicinal garden inspired by the medieval and Renaissance periods, including an amazing herb garden with more than 280 plants. A large number of events are held at the castle during the year: guided tours, holiday activities, markets, live re-enactments and much more.
