The story begins even before you enter the Danish Castle Centre. Explore the ruins of Vordingborg Castle, where the majestic Goose Tower, the old ring wall and the remains of St Andrew’s Church stand as powerful reminders of the town’s medieval greatness.
MONSTER
Step inside the hidden chambers of the Goose Tower and encounter the monsters of the Middle Ages in an exhibition by multidisciplinary artist Shane Brox. Here, myths and mysteries come alive as Kraken, Beelzebub and other fantastical creatures invite children and adults to explore imagination and emotions.
Discover the power struggles of the Middle Ages in the main building at the Danish Castle Centre. Explore the forces always linked to a castle – from kings and queens to the Church, weapons, jewellery and much more.
What can a small potsherd tell us about the past? Discover the answers – and much more – as the Danish Castle Centre brings the Middle Ages to life through both tiny finds and royal treasures. Explore the tools, techniques and stories of archaeologists in our outdoor exhibition containers.
