after a few years, the duke decided to build a new castle called hansburger. it was supposed to be a new and modern renaissance palace that suited him much better. as chief architect, he appointed hercules von oberberg - one of the most influential architects of the time. the western wing of the building was ready for use in 1562, and the duke moved in. four years later, in 1566, the southern wing with the chappelle was completed. after the completion of hansborg, the old building was demolished, and the area on which it stood for centuries, was sold in bits to the staff of the new palace. a small part of the castle is preserved to this day. in the 1570s, duke hans the elder proceeded to build the eastern and northern wings of hansborg, but he died in 1580, and therefore did not see the completed castle. after the duke died, king frederick ii of denmark acquired parts of his lands, including haderslev, and in 1580-1585, he finished the construction of the last two wings. the palace now stood as a whole - complete with four wings and two towers at the corners. in the area between the castle and the city, one could find stables, commercial buildings, and residences for the palace staff. the palace itself spanned over a 80x75m piece of ground - about the size of kronborg castle, and a bit bigger than sønderborg castle.
