Queen's Warehouse

Queen Dowager Sophie had a good sense of economics and trade. Through her connections, she gained great insight into grain and hop prices, for example. And she always bought when the price was lowest. Her large purchases were probably the reason why she bought farms in Nakskov in 1591 to store grain - including Dronningens Pakhus, which is Denmark's oldest harbor building. An association has been established for the restoration of this historic building.
