Dinamarca - Ribe
***
ENGLISH
Ribe (Danish pronunciation: [ˈʁiːbə]; German: Ripen) is a Danish town in south-west Jutland.
Ribe is the oldest extant town in Denmark, established in the early eighth century in the Germanic Iron Age. Established in the first decade of the eighth century and first attested in a document dated 854; Ribe is the oldest extant town in Denmark (and in Scandinavia).
When Ansgar the Archbishop of Hamburg-Bremen, set out on the "Mission to bring Christianity to the North", he made a request in about 860, to King Horik II of Denmark, that the first Scandinavian church be built in Ribe. This was not coincidental, since Ribe already at that point was one of the most important trade cities in Scandinavia. However the presence of a bishop, and thus a cathedral, in Ribe can only be confirmed from the year 948. Recent archaeological excavations in Ribe have however led to the discovery of between 2,000 and 3,000 Christian graves. They have been dated to the ninth century indicating that a large Christian community was already living peacefully together with the Vikings at the time. Excavations conducted between 2008 and 2012 have also revealed more details of the original church built by Ansgar.
The town has many well-preserved old buildings, Ribe Cathedral, and about 110 houses are under Heritage Protection. Denmark's oldest town hall is found on the town's Von Støckens Plads. The building was erected in 1496, and was purchased by the city for use as a town hall in 1709.

Ribe ( pronunciación danés: [ʁiːbə] ; alemán : Ripen ) es una ciudad danesa en el sudoeste de Jutlandia.
Ribe es la ciudad más antigua existente en Dinamarca, establecida a principios del siglo VIII en la Edad de Hierro germánica. Establecido en la primera década del siglo VIII y atestiguado por primera vez en un documento fechado en 854; Ribe es la ciudad más antigua existente en Dinamarca (y en Escandinavia).
Cuando Ansgar, el arzobispo de Hamburgo-Bremen , se embarcó en la "Misión para llevar el cristianismo al norte ", solicitó alrededor del año 860 al rey Horik II de Dinamarca que se construyera la primera iglesia escandinava en Ribe. Esto no fue una coincidencia, ya que Ribe ya en ese momento era una de las ciudades comerciales más importantes de Escandinavia. Sin embargo, la presencia de un obispo, y por lo tanto una catedral, en Ribe solo puede confirmarse desde el año 948. Sin embargo, recientes excavaciones arqueológicas en Ribe han llevado al descubrimiento de entre 2.000 y 3.000 tumbas cristianas. Se han fechado en el siglo IX, lo que indica que una gran comunidad cristiana ya vivía pacíficamente junto con los vikingos en ese momento. Las excavaciones realizadas entre 2008 y 2012 también revelaron más detalles de la iglesia original construida por Ansgar.
La ciudad tiene muchos edificios antiguos bien conservados, la Catedral de Ribe , y alrededor de 110 casas están bajo Protección del Patrimonio. El ayuntamiento más antiguo de Dinamarca se encuentra en la ciudad de Von Støckens Plads. El edificio fue erigido en 1496 y fue comprado por la ciudad para ser utilizado como ayuntamiento en 1709.

Kronborg is a castle and stronghold in the town of Helsingør, Denmark. Immortalized as Elsinore in William Shakespeare's play Hamlet, Kronborg is one of the most important Renaissance castles in Northern Europe and has been added to UNESCO's World Heritage Sites list (2000).
The castle is situated on the extreme northeastern tip of the island of Zealand at the narrowest point of the Øresund, the sound between present Denmark and the provinces of present Sweden that were also Danish at the time the castle was built. In this part, the sound is only 4 kilometres (2.5 mi) wide, hence the strategic importance of maintaining a coastal fortification at this location commanding one of the few outlets of the Baltic Sea.
The castle's story dates back to a stronghold, Krogen, built by King Eric VII in the 1420s. Along with the fortress Kärnan, Helsingborg on the opposite coast of Øresund, it controlled the entranceway to the Baltic Sea. From 1574 to 1585 King Frederick II had the medieval fortress radically transformed into a magnificent Renaissance castle. The main architects were the Flemings Hans Hendrik van Paesschen and Anthonis van Obbergen, whereas the sculptural work was coordinated by Gert van Groningen. In 1629 a fire destroyed much of the castle, but King Christian IV subsequently had it rebuilt. The castle also has a church within its walls. In 1658 Kronborg was besieged and captured by the Swedes who took many of its valuable art treasures as war booty. In 1785 the castle ceased to be a royal residence and was converted into barracks for the army. The army left the castle in 1923, and after a thorough renovation it was opened to the public.

El Castillo de Kronborg está situado cerca de Elsinor, Dinamarca. Es uno de los cuatro monumentos daneses declarados en 2000 Patrimonio de la Humanidad culturales, junto a la catedral de Roskilde, las runas, túmulos e iglesia de Jelling y el fiordo helado de Ilulissat.
Durante varios siglos Dinamarca obtuvo importantes ingresos económicos cobrando una tasa a los barcos que atravesaban el estrecho de Oresund, estrecho que separa a la isla danesa de Selandia del territorio sueco. El Castillo de Kronborg cumplió un importante rol en esta tarea recaudatoria.
En la actualidad el castillo es sede del Museo Marítimo y de Comercio de Kronborg. Algunas de sus dependencias pueden ser visitadas por el público.
Es el lugar donde acontece Hamlet, la obra de Shakespeare. En dicha obra, el castillo de Kronborg tiene la denominación de "Elsinore".
