Roskilde Mansion, also known as the Yellow Mansion, is a historic Baroque building located in central Roskilde, Denmark, just east of the famous Roskilde Cathedral. Originally commissioned by King Christian VI in the 18th century, it served as a royal residence during significant events and has a rich history, including its use as headquarters during the English siege of Copenhagen in 1807. The mansion features stunning architecture with yellow-washed masonry and red tile roofs, and it now houses the office of the Bishop of Roskilde, as well as art exhibitions and cultural events in its gardens and courtyard. Visitors can explore its beautiful design and learn about its role in Danish history.
