Christiansborg Slotskirke

Christiansborg Palace Church is a church of the Royal Palace. It is used for the ceremonies of members of the royal family. The original castle church was built between 1738 and 1742 during the construction of the first Christiansborg Castle. It was lost in the Christiansborg fire in 1794. As much of the exterior walls and partitions surviving the fire, they were reused in the present church. In its current architecture, the church of the castle was built in the years 1813-1826 in the classical style by the architect C.F. Hansen. Burned again in 1992, the church reopened in 1997.
