    The spelling of a lot of these place names seems to be German. In Danish: Fredriksborg Slot
  • Jesper Hauge said:
    Actually it's now "Frederiksborg Slot, Hillerød, Denmark", but when the picture was taken, the spelling in this picture could very well have been correct. I live just 1500 meters from here, and my grandfather used to work as a gardener in the park around the castle. He lived in a little house just outside the frame of this picture. Frederiksborg Castle isn't situated in Copenhagen, but in Hillerød, approximately 35 km from the center of Copenhagen. It is now a museum where you can see a large collection of historic paintings.
  • Roger W said:
    I was at Fredericksborg some years ago, and I found the museum very interesting. With each room, you advanced about 10 years in Danish history. Of course you are correct, Jesper. It is Hillerød, not Copenhagen. I have a later view of this photo. It will have to wait a few days, until I post the set on Flickr.
  • The Library of Congress said:
    Thanks for the correct location! We'll update the title and subject fields in the source data and reload the description.
  • Henk van der Eijk said:
    Hi, I'm an admin for a group called Historical Gardens, and we'd love to have this added to the group!

    The Moat is apparently referring to the motte in the background, rather than the canal in the foreground.

    You are right about it having all changed utterly.. maps.app.goo.gl/tMahZkd2LT6mLipv7
  • Sharon Corbet said:
    OSI 25" Map showing the "North Moat". There was also a South Moat, but is only shown as "site of" on this map.
  • O Mac said:
    That long row of buildings just below the Motte are still there but looking run down. maps.app.goo.gl/FKY1KVZYKddUtYwCA

    Is that Bo-Peep across the water? I hope she has her pooper scooper with her as it looks like that Dog is in the middle of something!
