6 Suit of Armour at Egeskov Castle in Kværndrup, Denmark

There are several rooms inside the Egeskov Castle which are open to the public. They have all been meticulously restored and contain historic furnishings and artifacts plus reproductions. This suit of armour is one of the pieces I enjoyed most. It was commissioned in 1999 by Michael Caroline Ahlefeldt-Laurvig-Bille, the castle’s current owner. The mail is an exact replica of the one worn by Frands Brockenhuus in the mid-16th century. The body plate contains over 10,000 metal links.
