Bernstorff Palace, Neoclassical castle in Gentofte Municipality, Denmark.

The palace features four decorative garrets, attics with ornamental vases, and a wide balcony along the roof ridge with a dome-covered projection.

French architect Nicolas-Henri Jardin designed this palace in 1765 for Count Johann Hartwig Ernst von Bernstorff, who served as Foreign Minister of Denmark.

The rooms contain original elements including parquet floors, large mirrors, decorated ceilings, and overdoors with artwork by Johan Edvard Mandelberg.

The palace operates as a hotel and conference center, offering guided tours that require advance reservations on specific dates throughout the year.

The surrounding gardens feature a Swedish Villa from 1888, built in traditional timber style for the Nordic Exhibition and now hosts art exhibitions.
