Without food and drink

Do not forget the most important thing: You must taste North Zealand: the good life, the excellent food, the good drinks and the unforgettable experiences. When you want to satisfy your hunger, you can enjoy the food and cosiness in one of the authentic harbour towns or one of the two castle towns. The local food producers supply fresh ingredients with juice, power and flavour grown and bred with respect for craftsmanship and animal welfare. Find them in farm shops, harvest markets, and selected restaurants in North Zealand. 

Cultural beacons, strong history and unique cultural heritage

Get close to Danish history when the royal castles of North Zealand welcome you into a world of pomp and grandeur. Here, powerful tales of Danish history and cultural heritage await, stories you don't want to miss. The castle gardens serve as green sanctuaries, open to everyone, adorned with garden art and inspiration for all gardening enthusiasts. The proximity to Copenhagen and the diverse natural landscape has always attracted artists and creative minds.

Few places in Denmark offer such a rich concentration of art and cultural experiences. Encounter international landmarks of modern art and architecture and be captivated by distinguished art collections. Explore quaint galleries and meet talented artisans who open their workshops to visitors
