Hamlet's Grave

By that time, a stone obelisk marked Hamlet's Grave in the park of Marienlyst Castle (56°02′32″N 12°36′02″E / 56.0423°N 12.6005°E / 56.0423; 12.6005), on an old fortification on the crest of a hill.

Nathanson, who rented Marienlyst castle and operated a luxury hotel there from 1859 to 1896, marked Hamlet's grave with a large heap of stones.

[4] At a later time, a bronze plaque was added to the stone reading This refers to the design of Utzon-Frank's relief, showing a lion-like creature on one side (for Hamlet) and a unicorn on the other (for Ophelia).

In the account of Saxo Grammaticus, Amlethus dies in battle against Wiglek and is indeed buried on a plain in Jutland, which was afterwards named after him.

On 30 April, Politiken published a sarcastic article which made the tongue-in-cheek suggestion that the people of Randers were free to exploit the theory and erect a stone to Hamlet on the mound in an attempt to draw away tourism from the much-criticized "fraudulent" monument in Marienlyst park.
