Elsinore Castle By: Damon Holmes

Castles Real Name The “Elsinore Castle” as it is is refferded to in Hamlet is not the castles real name. (Kronborg.dk) The actual castle is named Kronborg and the town the castle is in is Elsinore. (Kronborg.dk) Kronborg in Danish means Crown Castle in English (Weilbach)

Location The Kronborg castle is located in Elsinore, Denmark (Weilbach) The castle is located right on the channel to the Baltic sea. (UNESCO) The castle was built on the narrowest part of the sea way to control coastal fortification. (UNESCO)

History Of Kronborg Built in 1420’s by King Eric VII. (Weilbach) It was built so that the castle would hear any ship entering or leaving the channel. (Kronborg.dk) In 1629 there was a large fire at the castle and only the chapel inside did not catch fire. (Kronborg.dk) .dk

History Of Kronborg The castle was also Taken over by the Swedish army for a short period of time during the Dano-Swedish war from 1658 to 1660. (UNESCO) It was also used as a prison from 1739 to 1900 the prisoners worked in the castle for the soilgers. (UNESCO) The prisinors would be of high level (Murder and violent crimes) and were kept in the dugeons. (UNESCO) In recent history; the castle has been a museum since 1923. (UNESCO)

In Relation to Hamlet The play has been acted out in the castle in various spots including the southwest corner as well as the courtyard and other places. (Weilbach) This is the main setting for the text and where Hamlets family lives.

In Relation To Hamlet The castle has it main roots in the 1600’s which is the era Hamlet is set in. For this reason the castle is significant because it is a representation of the time in the text. It shows us the era of the setting because of the consruction and design of the castle.
