Fredensborg Kommune

 

Fredensborg is famous for the summer palace of the Danish Royal Family. The beautiful Palace gardens include Normandsdalen, filled with the newly restored statues of Norwegian country people. The town has always attracted visitors – Hans Christian Anderson and Soren Kirkegaard are among the town’s many admirers. Fredensborg’s convenient location in the heart of serene countryside, but close to the capital Copenhagen and the coast, makes it highly sought-after.
