Attractions

Powder Tower is a remnant of a fortification that was built in the 17th century. In addition to the function of storing gunpowder, the tower was also used as a platform for cannons. Originally, the Powder Tower lay freely on a nose projecting into the Kattegat. In 1974, it was decided to move the Powder Tower to its present location, as the tower was no longer in use. Today, the Powder Tower stands 270 meters from its original location. The relocation work took 13 months and the transport of the colossal building took place in one piece.
