OUR TRAVELS

Denmark - Roskilde

The former capital of the country of Roskilde, famous for its magnificent cathedral where most of the Danish monarchs rest, and a museum of Viking boats excavated from the bottom of the bay. The little house is impressive with its size and splendor, but I was most interested in the gilded main altar made around 1560 in Antwerp, commissioned by the Gdansk patriciate. During the voyage, it was confiscated by the Danes in Helsingor. The modern authors of the information folder about the cathedral did not even stumble upon this fact.
