Hop on the train from Copenhagen Central Station and just 45 minutes later, you’ll find yourself in the historic port city of Elsinore, or Helsingør in Danish. Established in the 1420s by King Eric of Pomerania, Elsinore thrived on the Sound Dues, a toll for ships passing through the Øresund Strait. This tax led to the construction of Kronborg Castle, later immortalized as Hamlet’s home in Shakespeare’s play.
With StoryHunt, you’ll uncover fascinating tales as you explore this charming town. Start at the train station and visit the iconic Kronborg Castle, delving into its rich history and Shakespearean connections. Wander through Monk Street and discover the serene St. Mary’s Church and Convent.
