Christian IV’s small favourite castle has an idyllic location, next to the King’s Garden in the heart of Copenhagen. Today, this Renaissance castle houses the Danish crown jewels, which are worn by the sitting queen on special occasions. You can also visit Christian IV’s audience rooms and see his bedchamber, where he passed away, in 1648. In the Treasury beneath the castle, you can see the Danish crown jewels, the magnificent royal crowns and the Crown regalia.
Deep in the vaults of Rosenborg Castle lie the Danish Crown Jewels and Regalia. These sparkling symbols of power are the only ones in the world that are both on display and still in use by the Queen.
