Frederiksborg Castle fountain. - Hillerød

Castle Frederiksborg is one the most beautiful castles I have ever visited in Europe... of course, I can mention that there are still lots of castles that I do not know. This one will remain anyway as one of my favourites.

In 1599 King Christian IV began the construction of the castle in Dutch renaissance style. It was finished in 1615.

The beautiful baroque garden is also a must see, once you visit the castle...

Hi, thanks for the Denmark page. The castle photo is very impressive. Certainly Denmark is a country that should be visited.
