Egeskov Castle is a major tourist attraction in Denmark because it is the most beautiful and best-preserved moated castle in all of Europe. For over 450 years, Egeskov has been situated in a scenic setting in the south of the island of Funen. The main building, completely surrounded by water, was built by Frands Brockenhuus and completed in 1554. He was a wealthy landowner and needed a fortress that was difficult to conquer to protect against raids, so he had it built in the middle of a marshy area. To fortify the foundation, an entire oak forest was felled, and the piles were driven into the lake bed. The castle is surrounded by a unique and award-winning park that immediately captivates every visitor. https://www.medienwerkstatt-online.de/lws_wissen/vorlagen/showcard.php?id=21736

Schloss Egeskov is a very worthwhile moated castle in Kværndrup on the Danish island of Funen. The structure, still characterized by the Middle Ages, transformed over the course of its history from an externally late Gothic, internally already Renaissance-style moated castle into a comfortable country palace. The building is surrounded by extensive gardens (the largest historical garden complex in Denmark) and several museums are located on the castle grounds. The castle was built by the imperial marshal Frands Brockenhuus (1518–1569) and completed in 1554. The most important part of the museum facilities is the Renaissance castle itself. Inside, about ten magnificent rooms on two floors and an exhibition area in the attic can be visited. A large number of exotic hunting trophies bear witness to the hunting passion of a former lord of the castle. Furniture, paintings, musical instruments, porcelain, and many other art objects document the long history of the house, whose owners

Egeskov Castle looks like a fairytale castle. One of the few castles in Denmark that is still inhabited.

On the weekends from mid-November to early December there is a beautiful Christmas market (Julemarked) in Egeskov Castle Park. However, there is an entrance fee to the Christmas market and the castle is closed during this time. The Christmas market is located on the castle park grounds as well as in the museums located there.
