Christian IV's Brewhouse, Renaissance monument in Slotsholmen, Denmark.
The royal brewhouse exhibits Renaissance architecture with robust stone walls and distinctive vaulted ceilings near the Copenhagen harbor front.
Built in 1608 during King Christian IV's reign, the structure initially served as a corner bastion in Copenhagen's fortification system rather than brewing purposes.
The building houses the Lapidarium of Kings, displaying 300 statues and sculptures from Danish royal gardens, palaces, and notable structures across generations.
Located at Frederiksholms Kanal 29, the museum opens Tuesday through Sunday from 12:00 to 16:00, with adult admission at 60 Danish Krone.
The collection includes the original equestrian statue of Christian V from Kongens Nytorv and a plaster model of Frederick V's monument at Amalienborg.
