Fredensborg, which means Peace Palace in English, is where the peace treaty between the Danes and the Swedes was signed and since then the two countries have never fought each other. The Palace was very popular with the Royal Families of Europe, who used to go to the palace for their holidays in the 1900s.
There's been a castle here since the 1420s, but the present Kronborg Castle dates back to 1585. Kronborg has been made famous by Shakespeare's play, Hamlet, which is performed at the castle every year.
