Alholm Attractions
This attractive town on the Baltic grew up around Ålholm Castle, which was built in the 12th C.; the west wall is 14th C. About 1330 King Christoffer II mortgaged the castle to a count from Holstein; later he was to be a prisoner in his own castle. In the late 19th C. it was converted to a knight's castle. It has some interesting portraits as well as paintings by the Danish artist Jens Juel.
Automobile Museum
In Stubberupgård, near the castle, is found the Ålholm Automobile Museum, Denmark's largest collection of old and vintage cars, numbering some 200 and dating from 1896 to 1936. There is also a model railroad layout with scenery reproducing that of Switzerland, Italy, etc. A train pulled by a steam-engine which resembles an 1851 model runs from here to the beach.
