Lonely Planet review

This Dutch Renaissance castle looks spectacular enough from the outside - spread as it is over several small islets on a lake called Slotsø - but the interior of this former fortress and now national museum is no let-down either, with over 70 publicly accessible rooms boasting gilded ceilings, full-wall tapestries, paintings and antiques.

Particularly impressive are the Riddersalen (Knights Hall) and Slotskirken (the Coronation Chapel), the latter being where Danish monarchs received their extravagant new head-gear between 1671 and 1840.
