Park of Frederiksborg Castle, Renaissance castle park in Hillerød, Denmark

The park features three artificial islands connected by bridges, surrounded by a large lake and formal gardens with fountains and sculptures.

The garden transformed in 1720 when the royal architect Johan Cornelius Krieger created a symmetrical Baroque design with terraces and water features.

The cascading fountains and water features in the garden demonstrate the Danish interpretation of French garden design principles from the 1700s.

Visitors can explore both the formal Baroque garden and the natural landscape park, which includes walking paths around the castle lake.

The Neptune Fountain in the castle courtyard contains bronze figures created by Adrian de Vries, replicated from the original 1620 sculptures.
