The following Sketchfab scan, from Virtual Sweden, shows the Glimmingehus Castle. As Virtual Sweden notes:

“Glimmingehus is a medieval era castle located at Simrishamn Municipality, Scania in southern Sweden. It is the best preserved medieval stronghold in Scandinavia. It was built 1499-1506, during an era when Scania formed a vital part of Denmark, and contains many defensive arrangements of the era, such as parapets, false doors and dead-end corridors, ‘murder-holes’ for pouring boiling pitch over the attackers, moats, drawbridges and various other forms of death traps to surprise trespassers and protect the nobles against peasant uprisings.”

There are numbered details for the various rooms in the scan and if you click on the ‘Visit Room’ link at the end of each description it will open an explorable view of each room. You can adjust the navigation mode in the settings at the bottom of the window.
