Copenhagen, Denmark ~ Rosenborg Castle

On Monday we woke up rejuvenated and ready to go. As I said earlier, we stayed a bit out of the city center. Walked to Rosenborg castle which was a little over 1 mile. The castle was on the way to the hear of the city center and a must see on our list of things to see in Copenhagen. 

This castle was absolutely gorgeous! Rosenborg castle is a Renaissance castle that was built in 1609. It was a summer house for the Danish Royals.  




CJ is clearly excited about this castle ~ Look at that mug!!










Ash was in love with all the elaborate "things" ~ She expressed great interest in all the couches and chairs



This was one of her favorite rooms. She asked if she could have this for her birthday :-)




Ceiling in the Great Room ~ Danish Coat of Arms


Coronation Chair


Queen's thrones with complete silver lions



Ash got really sad in this room because the king and queen were "lost" ~ She wanted them to be in their thrones 



Castle treasury in the basement ~ This was Mike's favorite room :-) Swords and Guns!!!



Crown of King Christian IV


Crown of King Christian V


Queen's Crown


Royal Jewels



Ash and I need these in our lives!!!


Coronation Regalia ~ Sword of the State, Scepter, and Globus Cruciger  



This treasury was a very small scale to what the Kremlin Armory was like in the Moscow posts.
