King Christian 4. monogramFrederiksborg Castle, Hilleroed, North Zealand, Denmark. Named after King Frederik 2. (1534-88). The main part of the castle was built in Dutch Renaissance style between 1600-20 by the son of Frederik 2., King Christian 4. The Castle Chapel survived when the rest of the castle burnt down in 1859 and today it stands as in Christian 4.'s time - the castle was rebuilt by the brewer and patron J.C. Jacobsen. The Danish Kings lived in Frederiksborg Castle for about a century and the absolute monarchs were crowned in the palace chapel from 1671. Since 1693, Christian 4.s palace chapel has also served as the knight's chapel for the Order of the Elephant and the Knights of the Dannebrog. The Castle Gardens consisted of a romantic landscape garden and a baroque garden, re-created in 1996 according to studies of the architect J.C. Krieger's gardens from 1725. The divorced couple HRH Prince Joachim and Alexandra Christina, Countess of Frederiksborg, were married in Frederiksborg Castle Chapel in November 1995. The castle is Museum of National History - a collection of portraits, historical paintings and modern art. (Renaissance) ( traduction automatique ) ( montrer le texte original ) | ||
