Best Answer

In Shakespeare's play, the Prince's name was Hamlet. However, there is a real town called Elsinore, with a real castle called Kronborg Castle, built in the fifteenth century and a favourite residence of King Frederick II, who lived there and even watched plays there in the 1570s. His son Prince Christian became King Christian IV of Denmark, one of Denmark's most notable monarchs, and must have lived in Kronborg as a boy. He was a real prince who lived in Elsinore Castle.

Where did Shakespeare's Hamlet live?

Hamlet is from Denmark. The play takes place at the castle of Elsinore and it is implied that this is the permanent residence of the court and the Danish Kings. If so, his home "town" is Elsinore Castle, which isn't a town at all. They talk about "the tragedians of the city" who have left the city to come to Elsinore. The play is vague about where this city is, just as it is about Hamlet's home town, since it doesn't matter to the way the play plays out.


Where in denmark is Hamlet set?

It's called Elsinore in the play. The real-life city is Helsingør, a coastal city and regional capital in eastern Denmark. It was never actually the capital of the country, as it is in the play.
