    • A fifteen year old Princess Caroline Mathilde married the mentally unstable King Christian VII about 1766.

    The King's physician, the actual power behind the throne, was deposed in 1772 and Queen Caroline was arrested as his accomplice and sent to Kronborg Castle under house arrest.

    Unique Qualities: When I saw the castle the day was gloomy, but I don't think that was the only reason the castle seemed a barren place to live.

    • Queen Caroline spent a miserable four months at Kronborg Slot before she was allowed to leave the country.

    Unique Qualities: I stayed about four hours and was far from miserable. It might have been because I knew I could leave anytime I wanted.

    • From 1739 to the mid nineteenth century, male convicts were sent to Kronborg Slot and sentenced to slave work on the castle fortifications.

    Unique Qualities: The hardest work I had to do was getting across the moats. It's much better being a tourist.

    • Kronborg Castle served as a Military Barracks from 1785 to 1922.

    Unique Qualities: This must have been very interesting for the soilders stationed here. So much history!

    One of the first things I noticed and commented on was the tiny glassless windows. Of course I was told that these were not windows at all, but openings large enough for weapons. The walls were too thick and the windows were too small for the enemy's ammunition to penetrate. This brought their reality crashing to my mind.

     Nice page, Linda! It's good to compare impressions from this beautiful castle. I've just finished my own page. Thanks for sharing!    		matcrazy1 Sun Jan 15, 2006 06:04 UTC
     Interesting finding :-) Mentally unstable King Christian VII had to be almost as dangerous as some politicians, nowadays, I see. Poor queen :-(
