About this tour
This session looks at Rosenborg Castle and the King's Garden surrounding it, built in Dutch Renaissance style. You see the castle's exterior details and the garden that has stayed open to the public for centuries. Casper explains what the crown jewels kept inside represent today.
The session covers two points around the grounds at a measured pace. Casper answers questions about the castle's history and the jewels as they come up.
This suits anyone interested in royal history or garden architecture. It pairs well with his session focused more closely on the garden itself.

-
Your questions 9 min
Time to ask anything about Copenhagen: prices, safety, food, or whatever you are curious about.
-
A short list to keep 4 min
Before you go, the guide sums up with a few things worth remembering: a dish to try: Rugbrød (rye bread) and Indre By, worth a slower look.
