Jægerspris Castle, Baroque castle and museum in Frederikssund Municipality, Denmark.

The three-winged castle complex features a north wing dating from medieval times and stands near extensive woods and walking paths.

Originally named Abrahamstrup, the castle changed ownership in 1673 before Prince Charles of Denmark acquired it in 1679 and completed renovations by 1722.

The castle park contains 54 monuments created by sculptor Johannes Wiedewelt in 1770 to honor notable Danish and Norwegian historical figures.

Visitors can reach the castle by taking an S-train to Frederikssund from Copenhagen, followed by a local bus to the castle grounds.

The castle preserves complete interior design from the 1850s, maintaining the exact arrangement from Frederik VII and Countess Danner's residence.
