🏰"Hogwarts-like" old reading halls with chandeliers and dark wood
🌳Secret garden behind the library with old trees and a pond
🚤Canal boat tours pass right by for great photos

Step inside the old reading halls and you'll swear you've wandered into a Danish Hogwarts: dark wood, towering chandeliers, and a silence so heavy it feels centuries deep. The modern Black Diamond extension adds sleek waterfront drama to the spell.
