CITADEL (KASTELLET)
A military zone of peace and tranquillity. A place out of time, ideal for a walk away from the hustle and bustle.
You will cross it on the way to the inevitable Little Mermaid. A bridge leads to the citadel once you have crossed the moat. It was built in 1661 by Christian IV to protect the entrance to Copenhagen harbor, part of the ramparts are still intact. Some buildings, still used by the Danish army and NATO, were restored in 1996 and opened to the public. It is a very beautiful place to walk around, a bit out of time. It is possible to go up on the grassy ramparts from which emerge a mill and red casemates where the soldiers live.
