Journeys Through Royal History at Amalienborg Palace

Founded in the 18th century and originally built for noble families, its significance burgeoned when the royal family moved in after Christiansborg Palace burned in 1794. The architecture showcases neoclassical design with rococo interiors, featuring the royal apartments, reception rooms, and historical artifacts.
