Frederik VIII’s Palace, Royal palace in Frederiksstaden district, Copenhagen, Denmark
Frederik VIII's Palace stands as one of four matching structures at Amalienborg, featuring classical facades and an octagonal courtyard layout.
The palace, constructed between 1750 and 1760 under architect Nicolai Eigtved's direction, became a royal residence after the 1794 Christiansborg Palace fire.
The palace maintains formal state rooms and chambers that display the evolution of Danish royal living spaces through different historical periods.
Visitors can explore the palace museum daily from 10:00 to 16:00, with guided tours offering detailed information about the royal collections.
The palace connects to other Amalienborg buildings through the Colonnade, a covered passage that allows royal family members to move between structures privately.
