Fredensborg
Fredensborg means "town of peace," earning the name after a peace treaty ending the Great Northern War was signed here in 1720. Fredensborg Castle, also known as Fredensborg Slot, is the unofficial favorite residence of the Danish royal family and a frequent site of elaborate state dinners. On its grounds is a historical baroque garden and nearby is Lake Esrum.
