Nyborg Castle is more than 800 years old. The Castle was built with a curtain wall in or around 1200, within Nyborg Fjord, but centrally located on the shore of the Great Belt in the heart of the kingdom of Denmark. For more than two centuries Nyborg Castle served as the meeting place for Danehoffet, Denmark’s medieval parliament. In other words, Nyborg Castle was the Christiansborg of the Middle Ages. During the 16th century, Nyborg Castle and town were expanded and became Denmark’s first capital.  For more than 400 years, Nyborg Castle played a central role vis-à-vis the Crown. The importance of Nyborg Castle to the history of Denmark is indisputable. Today, you can walk around the historic rooms, in which kings and queens made crucial decisions that shaped the Denmark we know today.
