FREDENSBORG CASTLE 



As so many European thrones were occupied by 

 her children, she was sometimes called " the 

 Grandmother of Europe." 



The Emperor Alexander III of Russia was 

 very popular with all the younger members of 

 the family, his nephews and nieces, and generally 

 when he went for his morning walk he was 

 attended by a whole bevy of youngsters in the 

 highest spirits. 



King Edward VII and Queen Alexandra 

 regularly continued to visit Fredensborg when 

 they had come to the throne. To all that 

 generation there could be no place like Fredens- 

 borg on the face of the earth, but the inevitable 

 passing of time has made gaps in the circle, filled 

 by the oncoming race.,
