Between 1919 and 1921, local Helsingør gardener [[Gudmund Nyeland Brandt]], removed the last remnants of the romantic gardens, replacing them with an 18th-century garden design to match the castle's [[classical architecture]]. For the most part it is these gardens visitors will see today. They have been part of Helsingør Municipality Museums since 1930.

 

 

In [[Middle Ages|medieval times]] there was a [[chapel]] dedicated to Saint Anne in the area, which probably belonged to the St. Anna Guild in Helsingør. In 1438 the chapel was given to a community of [[Franciscan]] friars which had been founded in 1419, who then converted the chapel into a [[monastery]] dedicated to [[Saint Anne]]. Nothing remains of the monastery except the street name, Sankt Anna Gade in Helsingør. The monastery was confiscated by the crown during the [[Reformation in Denmark|Reformation of 1536]]. The former monastery was probably part of the royal property on the grounds, called Lundegaard, where an old stone house is known to have existed in 1576.
