Museums and Exhibitions • Castles, Fortresses and Palaces
Directions

The family nest ofthe House of Glücksburg in the same-name city, 11 km from Flensburg, literally grewfrom a monastery. There was a Cistercian monastery at the place of Glücksburg Castlebefore the Reformation. Granite blocks of the monastery were used for theconstruction of the castle foundation at the end of the XVI century. Now thecastle is surrounded by water, which was not there at the time of theconstruction and is an artificial lake. Duke Hans, the younger brother of theDanish king was the first owner of the castle. Later, five generations of thisfamily owned it.

In the middle ofthe XIX century, the Renaissance Glücksburg castle was used as a summerresidence of the Danish monarch Frederick VII, who died here. The castle’s groundfloor housed the dining room, living room and bedrooms, which are now furnishedwith furniture of the XVIII-XIX centuries. Portraits of the dynasty, porcelainand silver are preserved in the interiors castle. Now the castle is a museumand is used as a concert hall in summer.
