Næsbyholm Castle

Glumsø, Denmark

Næsbyholm is first mentioned in 1388. The original creator of Naesbyholm, however, was Sten Brahe who built a magnificent rennaissance castle in 1585. This burnt down, unfortunately, in 1932. A new main building was erected, but this was partially destroyed by fire in 1947. The present building was built in the style of the original. Today Næsbyholm provides wedding and event services.

Næsbyholm castle is the most beautiful castle in Denmark!!! The surroundings, the garden and nature sets the perfect setting for a fairytale wedding. The rooms are incredible and everything is kept like a true castle fairytale. We had a dream wedding with food and drinks from the amazing Copenhagen Gourmet and Copenhagen Cocktail Academy. Stine Nygaard and Mia Kjær Herskind helped us make our dreams come true! They were an amazing team and we can’t thank them enough!! Their expertise and professionalism is unbelievable!

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
