The Louisiana Museum of Modern Art collection focuses on contemporary works from 1945 to the present. Works by Pablo Picasso, Jean Dubuffet and Louise Bourgeois are part of the permanent exhibition at this white villa named Louise, after the first (and second and third) wife of the man who commissioned the building.

The location alone makes this worth the trip (about 30- 40 minutes from central Copenhagen). The restaurant has a great buffet option which was delicious but very expensive. Great exhibitions, a lively children’s centre with different activities and beautiful gardens to walk through. We visited this museum after visiting Kronborg Castle and it was very easy (train to Kronborg then a local bus to the museum and finally train back to Copenhagen) all included with the Copenhagen card - well worth the money.

Fredensborg Palace was built in the beginning of the 18th Century. The image of an Italian country villa was on the drawing board when Frederick IV began construction on his Baroque palace. The king wanted to create a haven where his family life could flourish. This Baroque masterpiece took seven years to complete, and during this time the gardens were also planted. When Frederick IV died, his son Christian VI pulled down wings of the palace and erected new ones, which he, albeit, generally never made use of. It was only when Christian IX came to the throne that the palace was used for the purpose for which it was built. In the summer months, Christian IX and his queen Louise's 6 children, their children's spouses and 36 grandchildren flocked to Fredensborg Palace. Laughter and the trip-trap of tiny feet echoed in the palace halls, and members of the Danish Royal Family would spend time playing in the gardens. Ever since those happy days, the Danish Royal Family has been moving into the palace for the summer months, giving the youngest members of the family a trove of carefree childhood memories to treasure. The Royal Couple use the palace for three months in the spring and three months in the autumn. They celebrate weddings, silver wedding anniversaries and birthdays at the palace. Fredensborg also provides a setting for Her Majesty to carry out her official duties. She receives heads of state and ambassadors who submit their credentials to her at the palace. In the summer, Crown Prince Frederick and Crown Princess Mary use the palace as a summer residence. They have their own residential quarters in the Chancellery House. The expansive Baroque palace gardens are open to the public all year round. The palace and the Private Gardens are open for guided tours from July 1st to August 7th.

This palace is so awesome. We've been there in spring, summer and winter - all year this place is great. In the spring, the Queen comes to Fredensborg for her summer residency. It seems the entire town gathers in the city center in the evening to "welcome" the queen. They march from the center with torches they carry to the entrance of the palace. This is the only time the general public is allowed inside this area of the grounds while the Queen is there. Once everyone is gathered in that area, the Queen comes outside where she is greeted by song. Several songs are sang. I'm a big fan of Viking history and their march to the palace with torches seems to me to be a bit of a Viking ritual (it is really cool to experience). Once the singing is done, she delivers a short thank you to the public for the welcome and she wishes they a happy summer. There is also a great greenhouse on site that offers tours occasionally one can tour the palace -we did several years ago. The Crown Prince and his wife are currently building facilities there to house horses as that area has several prominent horse breeders and horse farms. The gardens (woods) are great to take a stroll. There are many great sculptures in the gardens too. There is usually a lot of snow there in the inter so sledding is possible there.

Danmarks eneste tilbageværende cirkulære ringovn, der blev taget i brug i 1870 og brændte mursten i 97 ar - indtil 1967. Der er kun meget fa andre af typen i udlandet - tre i Tyskland og en i Japan - har vi fundet. Da den blev opfundet i Tyskland i 1859 var den revolutionerende for teglværksdriften verden over og metoden blev anendt i Danmakr til langt op i 1960'erne, hvor den i dag er erstatte af en sakaldt tunnelovn. Vi formidler ogsa historien - den lokale fra Nivas første teglvæk i 1701 savel som den nationale, hvor Danmark under industrialisereingen radede over ca. 1.000 teglværker af meget varierende størrelse. Pa vores abningssøndage har vi tillige den gamle kulfyrede smedje bemandet.
