Overview
Built in 1902 as the Danish royal family's summer residence, where Queen Margrethe II spends her summer holidays each year. The elegant Neoclassical palace itself is closed to the public, but the 13-hectare Marselisborg Gardens are open free to visitors when the royals are away (mainly April-October). The Japanese, English, and rose gardens — partly designed by Prince Henrik himself — make for a lovely stroll. When the queen is in residence, a daily noon changing of the guard takes place. Gardens free. About 15 minutes by bus 18 from city center.
Opening Hours
Gardens: 09:00-17:00 (when royals are absent; mostly April-October).
