Troense - Valdemar Palace
Less than a mile south of Troense stands Valdemarsslot (Valdemar's Palace), one of the most beautiful Late Baroque palaces in Denmark. Christian IV had it built in 1639 for his son Count Valdemar Christian. The estate later passed to the maritime hero Niels Juel; it is now a museum with exhibits illustrative of the manorial culture of Funen (entry times given).
The palace has some very tastefully furnished rooms; these include the Royal Room with portraits of Danish kings and princes, other rooms with priceless tapestries, the Library with several thousand volumes, the Knights' Hall and the Palace Church. Restaurants with plenty of atmosphere - "Den graa Dame" (The Gray Lady) and "Æblehaven" - and a tea-pavilion will entice the visitor to tarry awhile.
