Palace Chapel (Frederiksborg Slotskirke) of Frederiksborg Castle

The Palace chapel (Frederiksborg Slotskirke on the map) occupies the Western wing of the castle, and is a unique building from the time of Christian IV. Construction work began in 1602, and the building was completed by 1606-1608.

During the fire of 1659, only the upper part of the tower was damaged; the interiors retained the appearance they had in the 17th century. The bell tower was renovated in 1659, the last reconstruction was carried out in 2002.

Крситиан IV был первым и последним королем, коронованным в часовне. С введением абсолютизма ритуал помазания заменил коронацию и все датские монахи, начиная с Кристтиана V были помазаны в часовне Фредериксборга.

The original Carillon was manufactured by 1619-21 the years by master John Escalera from Nordhausen and was destroyed by fire in 1859.

In 1863, 4 bells were installed on the renovated tower, and only in 1895 did the belfry acquire a full set of 27 bells, which sang 6 different hymns.

The chapel acts as a parish Church, with four priests and two organists. Organ concerts are held here on Thursdays at 13: 30.
