The Sights
King Christian 4. began and his son Frederik 3. finished The Citadel in 1663.
The Citadel is today an oasis in the city. It is placed near Rosenborg, and if you go inside you will arrive in another world! No noises from the city, the redpainted buildings are all from 1663, the yellow buildings, among them a church, are from the 18th century.
A tradition in Copenhagen is to have a walk on the ramparts on a special holiday evening in the springtime.
Only a little walk away from the citadel you can take a boat to visit another fortress at the harbour area.
The fortress is named "Trekroner" - "Three Crowns", where you can find a restaurant.
Museums
25 acres of landscape garden (laid out in 1874) with rare trees, shrubs and herbs. Special displays: Danish plants, rhododendrons, old rose varieties, mountain, aromatic, dyeing and aquatic plants. Large Palm House with tropical and subtropical plants.
