Egeskov Castle
Egeskov Castle, located on the island of Funen, is Europe’s best-preserved Renaissance water castle. Built in 1554 upon thousands of oak piles sunk into a small lake, the fortified manor was designed for defense during times of civil unrest. Beneath its picturesque towers and world-renowned gardens, Egeskov harbors chilling tales of tragic noble imprisonment, ancient curses, and a mysterious wooden doll lying in the castle attic that must never be moved.
