Sightseeing in Kolding
The single tower of Koldinghus castle stands high above the town, and is packed to the brim with history - and, unusually, furniture. The castle’s interior serves as an exhibition space, and it hosts the smooth curves, and sleek style, of some prime examples of peerless Danish furniture design. The interior itself is also a work of art, featuring high ceilings illuminated by a constellation of lights, rustic red brick walls, and vast wooden pillars that splay out across the roof of its vast banqueting hall. The present castle had to be heavily restored, after being engulfed in flames during the Napoleonic Wars - when soldiers garrisoned inside lost control of the fires they were burning to stay warm.
Expect to see colourful chairs hanging from the ceiling, moody photographs of iconic pop stars, and abstract, outdoor sculptures, as you make your way around this typically contemporary and varied museum. After the sensory overload of art and design, sit back and admire Kolding Fjord from the cafe. You can nurse a freshly ground coffee, and work your way through some traditional Jutland cakes - like streif torte, buried below a mound of plump red berries.
