Glücksburg Castle, Glücksburg, Germany
Warum meldest du dieses Rätsel?
In Today's Daily Jigsaw Puzzle, we visit the Glücksburg Castle (Schloss Glücksburg) ♥
This is one of Northern Europe's most important Renaissance castles, located on the Flensburg Fjord in Schleswig-Holstein, Germany.
Built between 1582 and 1587 by Duke John the Younger of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg, it was constructed on the foundations of the former Rude Abbey, a Cistercian monastery. The elegant white castle is uniquely set in a small lake, giving the illusion that it floats—an iconic feature of its architecture.
The castle became the ancestral seat of the House of Schleswig-Holstein-Sonderburg-Glücksburg, a cadet branch of the Danish royal family. This line gave rise to several European monarchs, including King Christian IX of Denmark, known as the "Father-in-Law of Europe," as his children married into many of Europe's royal houses, connecting Glücksburg to the monarchies of the UK, Greece, Norway, and beyond.
The last royal to reside full-time in the castle was Duke Friedrich Ferdinand (1855–1934), head of the House of Glücksburg. After his death, the castle ceased functioning as a ducal residence.
Today, Glücksburg Castle is owned and managed by a family foundation and operates as a museum.
