Fredensborg Castle Gardens are one of the largest historical gardens in Denmark and one of the most beautiful baroque gardens not only in Denmark but in all of Scandinavia.
The long straight avenues radiating out from the chateau in a star shape are a feature of the garden's original French Baroque style. The star shape makes the castle a powerful center that once symbolized the power of the autocratic king, where the winding avenues were meant to demonstrate man's ability to dominate nature.
The garden is richly decorated with sculptures, which were mainly created in the period 1760-1770.
