Frederiksborg Slot

Completed in 1620, this is Denmark's most beautiful Renaissance castle. The gardens dating back to 1725 are considered a model of baroque art. Between 1671 and 1840, the Kings of Denmark were crowned here. The chapel is opulently decorated and the 70 rooms open to the public are also worth a visit. The baroque gardens always have been and still are the most significant in Scandinavia - following years of reconstruction, they are now resplendent with their dead-straight terraces, cascades and flower beds.
