The museum exhibits art collections amassed by Danish monarchs.
The history of this museum begins with the diary of the German painter Albrecht Dürer. In one of his entries, he stated that the King Christopher II of Denmark had received the best copy of all of his prints. With this gift, the cornerstone of the National Gallery of Denmark was laid down.
To this day, Dürer’s works can be seen in the museum’s collection of art. His masterpiece sparked an interest in art in the Danish court. The subsequent members of Royalty kept the interest alive even if their taste varied in a one way or another.
