Borreby Castle, Renaissance castle in Skælskør, Denmark
The red brick castle features three towers on its north facade and one tower on the south side within a landscaped lawn bordered by moats.
Bishop Peder Jensen Lodehat acquired the estate in 1410, and it remained with the Bishops of Roskilde until the Crown confiscated it during the 1536 Reformation.
Danish author Hans Christian Andersen incorporated Borreby Castle into his story about Valdemar Daae and his daughters after visiting the property.
The outer courtyard and park remain open to visitors, while interior access requires scheduling a guided tour to explore the historical sections.
The castle functions as an agricultural estate in the 21st century, producing biomass fuel for power stations across Zealand.
