Frederiksborg Palace, in Hillerød, was built as a royal residence for King Christian IV from 1602 to 1620 by the Dutch architects Hans and Lorents van Steenwinckel.
It is the largest Renaissance Palace in Scandinavia, and follows the Dutch style favoured by Christian IV for his new buildings in Copenhagen.
In 1850s, the palace was again used as a residence by King Frederick VII; while he was in residence, a fire destroyed a large part of the castle during the night of 16/17 December 1859.

Krieger's gardens from 1725.
