"With its heavy and serious-looking exterior behind the wide moats and surrounded by tall lime trees, Clausholm seems to be brooding on a well-preserved secret or hiding treasured memories from a distant past." This is how Clausholm Castle is described in the old books, and it may be so. The history of the castle is long and chequered, and comprises both royal grandeur, endless love and tragic destinies. Clausholm is unique in that it has, unlike many other castles and manor houses, been left virtually untouched since the 1730s.
