Weapons and Wine

WEAPONS: The weapons are exhibited in four categories: Ceremonial weapons, Tournament weapons, Military weapons and Hunting weapons.

The war game set was made for the young Crown Prince Frederik (V). Using the figures, which represent “the Romans versus the Africans”, he could practice military strategy.

WINE: The barrels are for the “Rosenborg Wine”, the rootstock of which is white Rhenish wine from the 1590’s.

Nowadays the barrels are empty ad the wine tapped in steel tanks and bottles. Today it taste like dry sherry and is only served at the New Year Banquet and a few other special occasions.
