The Emperor's Villa

The Emperor's Villa is an 18th-century house in Hørsholm with architectural elements from different styles spread across several connected buildings. The interior rooms feature elaborate decorative details and ornamental work throughout.

This house was built during a time when Denmark was wealthy and culturally active. Later it served as a meeting place for important conversations between politicians and diplomats.

The rooms display furniture and artworks from when wealthy families lived here and organized daily life with household staff. You can see how residents arranged their spaces and what objects mattered to them.

Visitors should plan time to explore all the rooms and buildings, since the complex is larger than it appears from outside. It helps to wear comfortable shoes, as there is considerable walking involved.

The house features hidden doors and passages that staff used to move between rooms without being seen by residents. These routes allowed the staff to work discreetly throughout the home.
