We are delighted that Museumsinspektør Niels-Knud Liegott has offered to give ESU Members a guided tour of this beautiful Dutch-style renaissance castle. Rosenborg Slot is a fascinating museum of cultural history which houses some of Denmark’s greatest cultural treasures, not least the Crown Jewels and the Danish Crown Regalia, and tells the history of the Danish kings through 300 years, the late 16th century to 19th century. After the tour, which will last approx 1½ hours, it might be nice to have a coffee at one of the nearby cafés. PS: the castle is not heated so it would be advisable to bring a jacket.
