Sorry we are closed. Despite google claiming it to be open, it was closed, obviously already for some time. The main building is in good shape from the outside, however a construction site around it.

Very nice castle. Attention to detail. Beautiful interior decor. The modern that approaches the historian with such good taste. The garden is beautiful. SPA under construction. Very courteous staff. Recommended.

Splendid structure for events or just to spend a couple of hours immersed in peace. In the historic residence there is the resort, the cafeteria, the restaurant, the wine shop and shops selling organic products. The bar is recommended for breakfasts, lunch breaks or aperitifs. The wine shop is full of wines from all over Italy, the menu includes platters of local cured meats and cheeses. Advised!

Rosenborg Castle

Rosenborg Palace was built in the period 1606-34 as Christian IV’s summerhouse just outside the ramparts of Copenhagen. Christian IV was very fond of the palace and often stayed at the castle when he resided in Copenhagen, and it was here that he died in 1648. After his death, the palace passed to his son King Frederik III, who together with his queen, Sophie Amalie, carried out several types of modernisation.

The last king who used the place as a residence was Frederik IV, and around 1720, Rosenborg was abandoned in favor of Frederiksborg Palace.Through the 1700s, considerable art treasures were collected at Rosenborg Castle, among other things items from the estates of deceased royalty and from Christiansborg after the fire there in 1794.

Soon the idea of a museum arose, and that was realised in 1833, which is The Royal Danish Collection’s official year of establishment.
