Rolighed, Baroque monument in Frederiksberg, Denmark
Rolighed features a dark-tiled Mansard roof and consists of a central building connected to yellow agricultural structures arranged around a courtyard.
Built in 1770 as a summer residence, Rolighed represents one of the remaining examples of period retreats in the Frederiksberg district.
The Ministry of Interior Affairs acquired Rolighed in 1855 to establish the Royal Veterinary and Agricultural University, which started operations in 1858.
The University of Copenhagen currently maintains ownership of this historical structure, which stands at coordinates 55.68489 latitude and 12.54214 longitude.
The property originated as a wax bleaching facility in 1742, supplying materials directly to the Danish Royal Court before its transformation into a residence.
