Since the Reformation, all of Denmark's kings and many of its queens have been buried in Roskilde cathedral. The UNESCO listed cathedral was built during the 12th and 13th centuries in Romanesque (and later Gothic) style, on the site of Viking king Harald Bluetooth's 10th century wooden church.
Fredensborg Palace was built in Italian villa style by Frederik IV during the 1700s. Today, the palace serves as the royal couple’s spring and fall residence as well as the setting for various royal events.
