The Danish National Gallery is located in Frederikborg Castle.

The museum dates back to one of the many initiatives of J.C. Jacobsen, the founder of the Carlsberg breweries, in 1878. The collection was expanded a few years ago with an important 20th-century section.

At the founder's request, the museum is also open on Mondays.

The museum is definitely worth a visit.

In the outer courtyard of the palace stands the Neptune Fountain, created as a symbol of Denmark's status as a leading power in the Baltic region during the early 17th century. The sea god Neptune rises above the fountain's top. The goddess of fame, Fama, is also among the fountain's many figures. The current fountain is a copy of the original, created by the Dutchman Adrian de Vries around 1617. The original fountain was stolen by the Swedes during the Swedish Wars of 1658–1660 and now stands in the park of Drottningholm Palace (the Royal Palace in Stockholm).
