Sophienberg, Royal summer residence in Rungsted, Denmark

The five-bay Baroque building features a copper-clad dome and stands approximately 20 kilometers north of central Copenhagen along the Coast Road.

King Christian VI and Queen Sophie Magdalene commissioned court architect Nicolai Eigtved to construct Sophienberg in 1742, completing the project by 1746.

The property maintains connections to Danish nobility through its various owners, including composer Peter Lange-Müller who resided there until 1922.

The building currently functions as a conference and meeting venue, offering facilities for professional gatherings in a historical setting north of Copenhagen.

Colonel Arnoldus von Falkenskiold modified the structure by removing its upper floors due to the excessive size of the original royal residence.
