Helsingør (Elsinore)

The sun is shining on Hamlet's castle, in fact a gigantic tollhouse, and its surroundings. A very pleasant discovery was the maritime museum, M/S - Museet for Sjøfart, built in and arround a former dockyard, designed by Bjarke Ingels. Both the architecture and contents are a delight. There you can learn how to use a sextant, among many other things.
