Ordinarily, I would not devote an entire travelogue to a single castle unless it was something on the Egeskov Castlescale of Versailles in France. Normally, if a castle was really interesting or unique, I would still combine it with a local city or town and devote 80% of the writing to the castle grounds. Like Versailles, I decided to make an exception for Egeskov Castle, located in the south center of the island of Fyn in Denmark. The exception was very much justified, as Egeskov was not just a regular castle ground, but a complex of diverse museums that catalogued lifestyles from the 19th and 20th centuries. It also had playgrounds and activities for children. This place had something for everybody, and it kept me busy for hours on end. The other reason for treating it as an exception was because the nearest town, Kv�rndrup, was a one-traffic-light dot on the map a few kilometers away and there was nothing but open country in between the ground. Egeskov was therefore very much a location on to its own.
