Schackenborg Castle, Baroque castle in Møgeltønder, Denmark.

Schackenborg Castle displays white walls, rectangular windows, and copper roofs across its extensive three-story structure in Southern Jutland.

The castle replaced Møgeltønderhus fortress in 1661 when Count Hans von Schack received the land from King Frederick III for military service.

The castle functions as a second residence for Prince Joachim of Denmark and maintains connections with Danish royal traditions through various events.

Summer visitors can join guided tours of the palace garden, while the main castle building remains closed to public access.

The castle foundation preserves eleven generations of von Schack family heritage alongside modern royal connections since 1978.
