Frederiksborg Castle

On our second day in Denmark we went to Hillerod to go to Frederiksborg Castle - National History Museum. The description listed a children's area in the wine cellar where kids can dress up in historical costumes - that sounded like something my kids would really enjoy. (Also, thanks to my husband for doing all of the driving in a foreign country and to my cousin for the use of her GPS - that helped us out a lot!)

 The suit of armor Lucas wore was pretty heavy; he couldn't walk in it very well!

Dressed as Christian IV

There were some outfits just big enough for my sister and me to get in on the dress-up fun!

Posing seriously like the portraits from 'back then.'

This is one of my favorite pictures from that day. It looks so authentic.

The King and Queen

The church inside the castle.

The Great Room

Beautiful details on the ceiling.
