EMMANUELLE TERRIBILE (6 months ago)
Terrible owner who only thinks about money. Our guests were outraged by his attitude. Organizing our children's wedding was a journey full of pitfalls for them and a visit to the castle was even made on the day of the wedding. During the visit, everything is possible and included in the prices. In reality, everything is extra. No cooking for the caterer!!! Flies and cockroaches in the rooms and non-existent heating. Flee this place and especially its owners!!!

Visit on Saturday for the heritage days of this magnificent castle. Adorable and passionate owners. Patrick with all his anecdotes about the place took us back in time. Thank you to them for this pleasant moment.

We had such a perfect stay here, the castle is beautiful, the rooms spacious, and the host treats you like family. Wholeheartedly recommend spending a few nights here, while exploring the Champagne region. The castle is located in between Épernay and Troyes, and Châlons-en-Champagne is also a surprisingly nice and friendly town with some very good restaurants.

Fantastically beautiful ambience, great facilities, fantastic food personally prepared by the castle owner. This one is patient and great with kids. From a place of transit to one of the lasting impressions of the holiday. Thank you for the hospitality.

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.
