Anthonis van Obbergen

[2][3] In Denmark, he is remembered for his exceptional work on the Royal Palace of Kronborg in Helsingør (1577–86) which he completed after another Flemish architect, Hans van Paeschen, resigned from the project in 1577.

Although most of it was destroyed by fire in 1629, Christian IV had it rebuilt in accordance with van Obbergen's design.

[5] In 1585, under Frederik II, van Obbergen replaced the tower of the Kullen Lighthouse in the Öresund.

[3] In particular, he designed together with Jan Strakowski and Abraham van den Blocke[7] the Old Arsenal, one of the great buildings in the Flemish Renaissance style (1601–1609) as well as the Old City Hall (1587–1595) which displays the classic features of high quality Mannerist Flemish architecture.

[8] Other achievements include a number of fine houses in Danzig which he designed together with Jan Strakowski as well as work on the city's fortifications.
