The Vordingborg Castle ruins are located in the town of Vordingborg, Denmark and are the town's most famous attraction.
The castle was built in 1175 by King Valdemar I of Denmark as a defensive fortress, and as a base from which to launch raids against the German coast. His half-brother built another castle in a remote location, which is now Copenhagen. King Valdemar II similarly used the castle for expansion into the Baltic, and in 1241, it was where he created the reformed legal system, the Code of Jutland. By the time of King Valdemar IV, the castle had nine towers and a defensive wall, 800 metres long.
