    The Market Square (Torvet) in Nyborg is a historic square with a fascinating history. It was originally established in 1537 by King Christian III as a riding and tournament ground.

    The square is located near Nyborg Castle. At that time, the king had houses purchased to create space, which also served as a boundary to the castle.

    The square features a statue of King Christian IX, created in 1909 by the sculptor Hans Peder Pedersen-Dan. Pedersen-Dan is also known for other famous works in Denmark.

    In 1537, King Chr. III bought a few small houses in the upper part of Nørregade and cleared the area up to Slotsmøllen. This created the square that the king wanted to use as a riding arena and tournament venue.
