The elephant theme has to do with the Order of the Elephant - an old order of chivalry and the highest Danish honor. Almost exclusively bestowed on royalty and heads of state. Weird fact: Eisenhower was knighted after World War II, and the order's secretary asked if he could please forward his family's crest, so a copy could be made to display in the order's chapel. Turned out that Eisenhower didn't have a family crest. So the Danish office of heraldry came up with one - "Eisenhower" has its roots in "Eisenhauer", German for "iron worker". And so his crest features an anvil as the central element.
8:54 it’s 50 Danish krone not 50$ (so 7$) 11:02 It’s not the Dutch Royal family but the Danish Royal family. Slot means Castle and it’s a museum not a official residence of the Royal family. The Royal family lives at Amalienborg Palace. 13:22 That’s not the changing of the guards. The guards at Amalienborg Palace is at noon every day. Rosenberg Castle was the summer residence of Christian IV.
Ummmm 🤨 thanks for paying attention 😄😄😄I make lots of mistakes and leave then in. It’s part of the fun. I don’t mind the corrections. Hope you enjoyed the video over all
26:00 these two jewelry sets are actually used by the queen on special occasions. Most recently she wore the emerald set at her grandson's 18 years birthday party. Edit: sorry, I misremembered. It was at the banquet at the state visit of the king and queen of Spain. 26:22 This stone is part of the Unicorn Throne, which you saw in the great hall. You can see it here: 21:16. The big gem you see at the center of the front of the canopy is fake. The real gem is kept here in the treasury. It is an amethyst. Frederikskirken has the 6th largest dome in Europe.
Danish is a germanic language an the danish word Slot is derived from the german word Schloss which means castle or palace. The danish queen Margrethe II do not (ever) reside at Rosenborg slot but at Amalienborg slot. Rosenborg slot is a museum and house the danish crown jewels and other regalia such as crowns, sceptre and orb and four prominent jewellery Parure's and many other jewels and pricless and historic artifacts. but otherwise nice video
we all get things wrong from time to time. i think that what You do is marvellous and i appreciate that You take the time to go see places that most other vloggers don't, and show the beauty and wonder of danish history @@TooMuchLuggage
Your math is out of this world. $1 is 6,5 DKK. So for 100 DKK is $15. The 18 pack of beer is $13,69 and yes there is a fee called pant. that class from A to C all cans have Class A wich is 1DKK and Class B is 1,5 DKK, Class C is 3 DKK, and when u return ur cans, bottles with the pant sticker on, you get the fee returned to you. Btw Tivoli is not the oldest park in the world. Its the 3rd oldest. Bakken north of Copenhagen is the oldest park in the world.
FANTASTIC 👍
Thank you Bronson 😊

Thank you for the info. That’s a really cool fact about Eisenhower

Farmer markets are the best!

Us too!
I think the metro is the best!
The farmer market was looking good yet super expensive
It really is!

Wow. Thanks for all the info on the jewels. Thank you for all your comments. We love the on-site you have to offer.
I think that Ben should get a sword. He'd be looking great in a knight armor too

08:56 I know Nescafé is a coffee brand but come on... 50 dollars?! and this Netto is supposed to be a discount store???
She should have said “50 Kroners” or about $7 usd
