In 1677, the castle and the island of Tåsinge were acquired by Niels Juel, a renowned naval hero. He purchased these properties using the income he earned from his victory in the Battle of Køge Bay. Niels Juel undertook the restoration of the castle, which remains in the possession of the Juel family to this day. This piece of history adds a layer of intrigue and personal story to the castle.
