This radar system is a so-called "MPR" a medium power radar. There are two of these plants in Denmark. In Germany they are being converted to ARED because the MPR is too expensive and prone to failure.

The Air Control Wing monitors, controls and deploys aircraft to counter violations in Danish airspace. This authority is the eyes and ears of the Air Force and is independently based under Air Command, whose main task is to secure Danish airspace.

Interesting to walk along. Of course it is a restricted area and you can't go onto the site. But there is some information about the history of the radar station
