Christianelyst, Neoclassical house in Lyngby-Taarbæk Municipality, Denmark

The residence features a main wing with two side wings that form three sides of a courtyard, facing a garden that extends toward Bagsværd Lake.

Carl Ludwig Drewsen constructed Christianelyst in 1803, naming it after his wife Christiane Louise Frederikke Buch as part of land parcels from Frederiksdal estate.

The building displays classical elements of early nineteenth-century Danish residential architecture through its symmetrical design and traditional black-glazed tile roof.

The property encompasses 614 square meters of living space, a 212-square-meter cellar, and stands on a 12,000-square-meter plot near Copenhagen's northern suburbs.

The house appeared in the 1948 Danish film I de lyse nætter, serving as the residence for the character Linda Strand portrayed by Tove Maës.
