Hoogtepunten

Explore Denmark's most spectacular Renaissance castle on this self-guided audio tour around Frederiksborg's courtyards and baroque gardens. Built by ambitious King Christian IV in the 1620s as a pleasure palace, you'll hear stories of Swedish raiders, stuffed horses, and beer-funded reconstructions that bring its dramatic past to life. Wander from the medieval castle bridge through baroque gardens inspired by Versailles with annual replanting of 12,000 tulips in intricate geometric patterns, cross the unusual S-shaped bridge with its horse legend, and discover Neptune fountain where Christian IV depicted himself as the Greek god. This 30-minute walking tour ends beside peaceful Slotssøen lake. Please note this is a tour of the Frederiksborg castle which is free to enter, and not a ticket to the castle museum.

About Copenhagen

Copenhagen is Denmark's harbour capital, a low-rise city of canals, royal palaces, bicycles, pastries and a pleasure garden in the middle of town.

Copenhagen spreads across the islands of Zealand and Amager, with harbours and canals shaping the centre. Nyhavn, a seventeenth-century canal lined with coloured houses and old ships, is the classic view. Amalienborg Palace, the royal family's residence, stands on a square near the water, Rosenborg Castle holds the crown jewels, and Tivoli Gardens, open since 1843, mixes flowers, rides and concerts beside the train station.

Top-ranked sights in Copenhagen: Christiansborg Palace (Christiansborg Slot), Nyhavn, Amalienborg Palace.
