The Danish Government and Parliament, the Supreme Court and the Foreign Ministry are all housed in the Christiansborg Palace in Copenhagen, as well as the Royal Reception Rooms and the Queen’s Library, which are open to the public when not in use by the Queen. A large area of the palace belongs to the Royal Family and the Danish Queen Margrethe is holding many of her functions here.

The impressive tower is with its 106 meters the highest in the city.
A guided tour around the premises of the palace usually lasts approximately 50 minutes and many of them are offered in English.
