The Site Today
In 1822-23 a small church designed by architect Christian Frederik Hansen was built on the grounds of the demolished palace. The park surrounding the church, which is located on a small island in a lake, still bears some evidence of the original palace garden. A number of the farm buildings Louise had built in the early 18th century still exist. Some of them house the Danish Museum of Hunting and Forestry.
The Hørsholm Local Museum has a permanent exhibit about the palace, the royal affair and its consequences.

Famous quotes containing the words site and/or today:
“That is a pathetic inquiry among travelers and geographers after the site of ancient Troy. It is not near where they think it is. When a thing is decayed and gone, how indistinct must be the place it occupied!”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“It makes worries like what you wear today seem stupid.”
—Rebecca Neel (b. c. 1981)
