Description
"Bicycle at Christiansborg Palace, Copenhagen, Denmark, Black and White" by Catherine Sherman.
A bicycle leans against a rail at the courtyard of Christiansborg Palace in Copenhagen, Denmark.
Christiansborg Palace is said to be the only building in the world where all three branches of government are represented in the same place - Danish Parliament, the Supreme Court, and the Prime Minister all meet here. The current Christiansborg Palace is relatively new, but there have been at least four other castles/palaces in this location, the first dating all the way back to 1167.
Historically, Christiansborg Palace in Copenhagen, was the main residence of the Danish kings. But after the fire of the first Christiansborg Palace in 1794, the royal family moved their residence to Amalienborg. However, even though the royal family does not reside in the palace, parts of Christiansborg has continued to be used by the monarch for official purposes and state ceremonies. It is the site of public audiences, meetings of the Council of State, state dinners, receptions and other ceremonies. Also, the Royal Stables which provide the ceremonial transport by horse-drawn carriage for the royal family, is located here. The royal parts of the palace are open to the public when they are not in use for official purposes.
