As it stood in 1928

What Christiansborg Palace looked like in its prime.

Symmetrical three-part palace with a monumental central block and a multi-stage tower rising above a broad gravel forecourt; façades faced in dark granite with rhythmic rows of tall windows and arched lower glazing. End pavilions carry steep red-tiled roofs and the central wings step back to a stone stair and portal. The setting is an open palace square with a formal fountain and equestrian statue aligned on axis toward the tower, presenting a finished early-20th-century state.
