		Rosenborg Castle was originally built as a summer residence for the Royal Family by King Christian IV in the beginning of the 1600's. Located outside the walls of the old city, it successfully survived the fires which ravaged Copenhagen in the 1700's and the bombardment of the Napoleonic War.
		The interior of the castle is also well-preserved due to the fact that it has not been extensively used as a residence after 1710.

		The elegant Gate Tower of Rosenborg Castle, Copenhagen of before 1610 (1608?) is a strangely overlooked piece of early architecture by King Christian IV (Fig.
		It is even more remarkable by being the only still standing element of the first Rosenborg Castle (1606+), which merely has survived as part of the basement and walls of the charming and much admired later castle, in itself almost a stage set as viewed trough and above the gate tower.
		By contrast to the gate tower, the first Rosenborg was a rather ordinary piece of architecture, at least to the plan it was built, and so is the Blue House, the king's banqueting hall in the same "Pleasure Garden" (1608+), although not without design, nor charm).
