Kastellet

Copenhagen’s Kastellet, a pentagon-shaped fortress built in 1662, stands as one of the best-preserved fortresses in northern Europe. Located in the heart of the city, this historic site still occasionally hosts military activities but primarily serves as a public park. As you stroll through the grassy grounds, you’ll encounter well-preserved barracks, a quaint chapel, a traditional windmill, and a moat that encircles the area. Today, visitors can explore these remnants of the past while enjoying the serene, open spaces.
