Yellow Palace, Copenhagen
Building in Copenhagen Municipality, Denmark
The Yellow Palace (Danish: Det Gule Palæ), or Bergum's Mansion, is an 18th-century town mansion situated at Amaliegade 18, next to Amalienborg Palace, in the Frederiksstaden district of Copenhagen, Denmark. It is considered the first example of Neoclassical architecture in Copenhagen.
Originally built as a burgher's home, the mansion was acquired by the Danish royal family. Prince Christian of Glücksborg, later to become Christian IX of Denmark, took up residence there, and it became the birthplace of his children Frederik VIII of Denmark, Alexandra, Queen of the United Kingdom, George I of Greece and Maria Feodorovna, Empress of Russia.
Today the building is owned by the Danish Palaces and Properties Agency and houses the Lord Chamberlain's Office.
