The Sunflower lanyard

If you have a hidden disability or condition, you can pick up a free Sunflower lanyard and a plastic sleeve for a personal card when you visit Koldinghus. Both are available from our Castle Shop and ticket desk.   

The Sunflower lanyard is a discreet sign that the wearer might need a little extra time and understanding or a helping hand. As part of the Sunflower programme, our frontline staff have the awareness and training to provide the conditions for a safe and enjoyable visit.
