At Glimmingehus, a late medieval castle built 1499-1505 in what was then Denmark and now Sweden. It was built for Jens Holgersen Ulfstand (died about 1520) by the master builder and stonemason Adam van Düren (who also did some of the decorations inside the castle). Adam was most likely from Westphalia but worked for several decades in Denmark and Sweden.

The house is one of most well preserved medieval castles in Scandinavia - but due to the lateness of the building date it soon went out of fashion and was subsequently turned into a grain storage. It was donated to the Swedish state in 1924 and turned into a museum.
