On the island of Hven
between Denmark and Sweden, which Tycho Brahe received from the Danish king
as his home for his activities, Tycho Brahe let build a castle. He dedicated
this to the Goddess of the sky, and named it Uraniborg, or Uraniburgi in
Latin, after the Greek Goddess Urania. It was not so big, 15 meters by 15
meters, but still exquisite.
