The city

The town grew up around the Castelo de Frederiksborg, the palace of Cristiano IV on a lake, with the Museu de História Nacional and the Baroque garden.

The local experience
The Renaissance palace of Cristiano IV on three islets in the lake of Hillerød, with the coronation chapel, the Compenius organ from 1610 and the Museu de História Nacional, which houses the country's largest collection of portraits.
The terraced garden behind the castle, created in the 1720s and restored in 1996, with cascades, clipped hedges and symmetrical beds that descend to the lake. The view of the castle from above is the most famous.
The royal family's spring and autumn residence, 10 km from Hillerød, built from 1720 to 1726 beside Lake Esrum. The Baroque park is open year-round; the palace usually opens for guided tours in July.
