	The Danish Monarchy - Collections - Christian VIIs Palace
		Amalienborg is one of the finest specimens of Danish rococo architecture, and indeed of Danish architecture generally.
		The octagonal space formed by the palaces around the equestrian statue of Frederik V was the culmination of the new part of the city, Frederiksstaden, which was established in 1749 as part of the celebration of the 300th anniversary of the Royal Family of Oldenborg.
		The ravages of time left their imprint on Christian VII’s Palace, and by the 1980s the condition of the palace had deteriorated to the point where it became necessary to carry out a general restoration, with a complete renovation of the external sandstone cladding and the sculptural decorations.
