The remains of the château de Bar-sur-Seine are the ruins of a medieval French fortified castle, destroyed in the 16th century. The first building was erected in the 13th century, adapted and altered into the 15th century.
The historic importance of the castle was due to its position on the frontier between Champagne (a vassal county of the King of France) and the Burgundy (a duchy allied with the English) during the Hundred Years War. At the time, the château de Bar-sur-Seine was considered the most important in Burgundy. Its architecture is close in style to that of the Château de Peyrepertuse in Aude.
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.
