Sønderborg Castle, Medieval castle in Sønderborg, Denmark
Located on an islet connected to Als island, Sønderborg Castle features four wings with stone walls overlooking the Als Fjord waterway.
King Valdemar I of Denmark established the fortress in 1158 to defend against attacks from Wendish tribes along the Baltic Sea coast.
The castle museum presents collections of regional artifacts and documents spanning from medieval times through the history of South Jutland.
Visitors can explore the castle daily from 10 AM to 4 PM during winter months, with extended hours until 5 PM from June through September.
The castle chapel, constructed between 1568 and 1570, remains among the earliest Protestant royal chapels in Europe with original Renaissance interior.
