Dansk: Koldinghus er et kongeslot og en borg, der siden opførelsen i 1200-tallet, har spillet en væsentlig rolle i Danmarks historie: som grænseværn, som kongelig residens og borgen husede den lokale statsadministration. Gennem middelalderen medførte beliggenheden, at Koldinghus blev en af landets største og vigtigste borge.Natten mellem 29. og 30. marts 1808 udbrød der brand. På brandens anden dag styrtede en del af Kæmpetårnet ned og Koldinghus blev efterladt som en ruin. I 1536 besteg Christian 3. (1536-59) den danske trone og sammen med sin dronning Dorothea, startede de en fuldstændig ændring af Koldinghus. Alle middelalderlige forsvarsindretninger blev fjernet og ombyggedes og civilt slot, residens for kongen og hans familie i den vestlige del af riget. Gennem de sidste 100 år har ruinen været restaureret flere gange og er nu kulturhistorisk museum. I begyndelsen af 1930´erne var Kæmpetårnet ved at synke i grus, men det lykkedes at skaffe penge til genopførelse af tårnet. Først i 1970´erne iværksattes den endelige og fuldstændige restaurering af Koldinghus. Restaureringen er gennemført under ledelse af arkitekterne Inger og Johannes Exner.
