Copenhagen - Amalienborg Palace Slot
|
|
In the north central area of Copenhagen, Frederiksgade leads from the Marble Church to Amalienborg Palace, the residence of the Queen. It was built by Niels Eigtev about 1750, during the reign of King Frederik V. The spacious octagonal Palace Square is surrounded by four palaces; in the middle of the square stands an equestrian statue of Frederik V (1771). The palace originally provided residences for noble families, including Counts Christian Frederik Levetzau and Adam Gottlob Moltke, Baron Joakim Brockdorff and Counsellor Severin Lovenskold.
