Editing Nysted (section)

==Attractions==
The massive [[Aalholm|Aalholm Castle]] (''Aalholm Slot ''), built ca. 1200, dominates the view from the harbour at Nysted. For over 1,000 years this stronghold has tried to protected the town's citizens. It is one of the oldest, preserved Middle Ages [[fortress]]es in Denmark.

The castle has been enlarged several times, most recently in 1889. The castle was sold to the Raben-Levetzau family in 1725, who owned the property until 1995 when it was sold privately. It is owned today by the estate of the late Stig Husted Andersen. There is no entrance to the castle itself, but access is available to the park and forest via a path from the town. The Aalholm Automobile Museum (''Automobilmuseet'') is now closed, and all the cars are sold.
