Egeskov Slot, Fyn, Denmark
Moving on around, this is actually the back side of the castle. The entrance is over on the island. It is worth noting that the turrets were rebuilt in the late 1800's. They were a little shorter, and the tapered tops were more squat than they are now. The name "Egeskov" means "oak forest", as the castle sits on a foundation of thousands of upright oak trunks.
