Every year, almost 70,000 tourists come from near and far to visit Glücksburg Castle.
It is the most northern of the castles in Germany and at the same time one
of the most significant Renaissance castles in northern Europe. Its history and
the exhibits – of which the tapestries, the leather wallcoverings as well as the
porcelain and silver collection represent only the tip of the rich iceberg – but also
the architectural design with the oldest stucco work in Schleswig-Holstein, form
the basis of the enormous cultural and historical importance of Glücksburg Castle.
It is not surprising, therefore, that it is one of the most famous attractions
in Schleswig-Holstein, which has been used as a film location and depicted on
a stamp. Beyond the variety of superlatives, the quite private atmosphere
echoes the well-connected and extensive family tree that gave birth to kings
and rulers who played an active role in European history, making them what
they were and what they still are today: bridge builders from Schleswig-Holstein
to the North and to the whole of Europe.
