It was built in the 12th century by the Bishop of Roskilde, Priest Sunesen. Dragsholm Castle was used as a mansion for the rich in its early days. It was used as a prison in later periods and is currently used as a hotel.

It is famous for its 4 ghosts believed to haunt Dragsholm Castle. The first is the ghost of Reverend Ronnow, who was killed while incarcerated in prison.
The second is the ghost of the 4th Earl of Bothwell, who died insane in the prison where he was confined as a political prisoner.
The third is the ghost of Ejs Brockenhuus, who was chained to the castle's dungeon and left to die. Also known as Deli Ağa.

The last one is the ghost of Celina Bovles. She is also known as the White Lady. A commoner is a nobleman who falls in love with a man and becomes pregnant with him. His father, Celina Bovles, who learns about this relationship with a lower class person, confines him to Dragsholm. His skeleton is lost for centuries. While the restoration was underway in 1930, workers found his skeleton inside the wall.
