One of the royal residences right in the city. The rooms are quite rustic and many are dark. English signs are limited. You can rent an audio tour and you can use your i-phone to get more info.

The Rosenborg Castle is small and a great stop when in Copenhagen. The gardens are beautiful and the inside of the castle is well kept and intriguing with great period artifacts. Loved seeing the crown jewels too.

The castle is completely decorated and furnished, mostly original furnishings, which is rather unique. The crown jewels vault is an interesting part.

Crown jewels and a lot of beautiful and interesting objects'd art, furniture and tapestries. Should not be missed. Pay the extra fee and take photos. Check out the chandelier made of "amber."

Don't miss it. Especially the Treasury where you can see the Crown Jewels up close. It only takes about 30-40 minutes to tour this place and is well worth the time and entrance fee.

Nice to see the crown jewels and the royal palace/apartments. Would list this as a day two item on the agenda.

This palace in Copenhagen is a must see. The crown jewels and several interesting rooms. There were some very intricate clocks and the throne hall on the top floor is worth the climb up especially for a small closet room full of glass.
