Are you into history or do the royal family interest you? Book a tour of Schackenborg Castle and get all the stories from one of our skilled guides and see the beautiful buildings up close - also from the inside.
When you enter the castle square at Schackenborg Castle, take a walk in the beautiful castle garden or walk around the castle's beautiful halls and rooms, you are walking in footsteps that stretch back a thousand years and perhaps even further.
Hear about the time Møgeltønderhus, as the castle was called from the beginning, was one of the bastions of the Danish crown and church in the fight with the Holstein counts. Also look forward to the many stories about the construction of Schackenborg and the 11 generations of Schack who have lived at Schackenborg Castle - have you, for example, ever heard of the silver arm, or do you know who the evil countess is?
In 1978, the castle returned to the Danish royal family. The princely couple lived in the castle until 2014 and now use it as their second home.
Schackenborg Castle is located before the idyllic Slotsgade in Møgeltønder. Don't miss out on a walk in the beautiful Slotsgade when you visit Schackenborg Castle.
Please note that visits to the castle are not suitable for people with reduced mobility, as there is no lift in the castle and that access to the castle is via the cobbled castle courtyard.
We have tours that last 70 minutes, where you get the whole story including around the Castle Garden.
