Posthus-theatre is a small cinema that shows only European experimental films. It is situated in the basement of the old Post Office on Rådhuspladsen (the Town Hall Square). This cinema has only 90 seats, all old and soft. But the place has a very special atmosphere, to be experienced rather than described.
After the world-famous Danish Architect Jrn Utzon had finished the Sydney Opera House in the 1960s, he was asked to design a church for Bagsvrd. He accepted the offer and this church was finished in 1976. This could be called the most successful piece of modern church architecture in Denmark. From the outside, Bagsvrd Church looks simple, modern and almost uninteresting. But the interiors are really something else. Inspired by drifting clouds, Utzon has created another masterpiece in the interior of this church. The prime focus is on religion. If you ever go north of Copenhagen, you shouldn't miss this very special piece of architecture.
Frederiksborg Castle is located in the middle of Hillerød and contains the National History Museum. Originally built by Frederik II in 1562, it was Christian IV's idea to build the wonderful Renaissance castle we know today. The castle burned down in 1859, and only the church is left; but the castle was rebuilt in 1865, from the outside looking just like before. Brewer Carl Jacobsen invested money so that the interior could be made like the original as well. Frederiksborg Slot contains a fine collection of photographs and portraits.
