Playground is quite nice and there is something for the little ones as well as for the big ones. In summer, the sandbox is covered with a sun sail. However, the water on the water playground was always turned off when we were there last summer. Toilets are also available, albeit in poor condition

A small complex that you should definitely look at. Particularly interesting with small children because there is a nice playground right next to it.

The ruins of Bucherbach Castle and the foundation walls and a well-preserved wall section and part of the corner towers of the small castle complex are well preserved and are a great backdrop for e.g. B. Wedding photos. The beautifully designed children's playground behind it is well attended and offers the little visitors a great change.

Castle ain't much to see, but there's a nice kids play area on the otherside. So awesome ice cream opposite the street and play area makes lovely afternoon for kids.

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.
