Villas in Vordingborg
Vordingborg works for families keen on a medieval castle ruin, a market-town centre and direct trains to Copenhagen. Homes are modest, for four to six, and spread over several kilometres around the town, and none has a pool, so this is a base for history and day trips rather than a resort.

About Vordingborg
Vordingborg is a market town of about 12,000 people on Zealand's south coast, facing the Storstrømmen strait and Falster. In the Middle Ages it was a royal power base under Valdemar Atterdag, and the 26-metre Goose Tower, the largest of the castle's nine main towers, still stands over the ruins. In 1808 it became Denmark's first protected monument. The Danish Castle Centre combines a museum, the ruins and a climb up the tower. The centre has a pedestrian street with cafés and bakeries, and flowers are sold in the square on Fridays. The homes are spread around the town rather than in the centre, and some have a fireplace.
Is Vordingborg right for you?
- Best for
- History-minded families and Copenhagen day-trippers
- Not for you if
- You want a pool or a seaside resort, because none of these homes has a pool and Vordingborg is a working market town.

Vordingborg villa holidays: questions answered
Can you get to Vordingborg by train from Copenhagen?
Yes. Direct regional trains on the South Line run from Copenhagen to Vordingborg station, about once an hour, and the same line carries on south to Nykøbing Falster.
What is the Goose Tower in Vordingborg?
The largest of the nine main towers of Valdemar Atterdag's 14th-century castle, 26 metres tall with a golden goose on its spire. It appears on the 20-krone note, and you can climb it as part of a Danish Castle Centre visit.
Is Vordingborg a good base for Møn?
Reasonably good. Road 59 links the town with Stege on Møn, and buses run from Vordingborg station to Stege, so a day on the island works with or without a car.
When is Vordingborg at its liveliest?
In week 28, during the annual festive week. Shops move out onto the pedestrian street with stalls, and in the evenings the castle square fills with music.
