St Eleth's Church, Amlwch, is a Neo-classical parish church built in 1800 in Amlwch, Anglesey. It replaced an earlier church due to the town's growing population from copper mining. The first church in the area was reputedly established in the 6th century by Elaeth, or Eleth. He was a ruler from northern Britain who fled to Anglesey in north Wales when ousted from power, settling at St Seiriol's monastery at Penmon.
It is a Grade II* listed building known for its original architectural character. The church has a Neo-classical style with some Gothic elements, a tower with a clock and bell-chamber, and stained glass windows. The interior underwent renovations in the 19th century, including the addition of a chancel arch and arcades. It houses a 19th-century organ and a 1900 font. The churchyard features a lychgate from the early 19th century. It is historically significant due to its association with copper mining. The church is described as spacious, handsome, and tastefully restored, with an impressive tower.
References:Rosenborg Palace was built in the period 1606-34 as Christian IV’s summerhouse just outside the ramparts of Copenhagen. Christian IV was very fond of the palace and often stayed at the castle when he resided in Copenhagen, and it was here that he died in 1648. After his death, the palace passed to his son King Frederik III, who together with his queen, Sophie Amalie, carried out several types of modernisation.
The last king who used the place as a residence was Frederik IV, and around 1720, Rosenborg was abandoned in favor of Frederiksborg Palace.Through the 1700s, considerable art treasures were collected at Rosenborg Castle, among other things items from the estates of deceased royalty and from Christiansborg after the fire there in 1794.
Soon the idea of a museum arose, and that was realised in 1833, which is The Royal Danish Collection’s official year of establishment.
