Marienborg has been the official residence of Denmark's prime minister since 1962. It is frequently used for governmental conferences, summits and other official purposes, including the prime minister's new year speech. Unlike the residences of other heads of government and state (e.g. the White House, 10 Downing Street, La Moncloa and Élysée Palace), Marienborg does not serve as the government headquarters or contain the office of the prime minister, instead Christiansborg Palace is the location of the government departments.

Private history

The main building was constructed around 1745, and in 1795 the property was named after the wife of then owner, Marie Lindencrone. Upon the death of the last private owner, barrister and patron of the arts C. L. David, Marienborg was bequeathed in 1960 to the Danish state as a summer residence for the prime minister in office.

In the 18th century, the region north of Copenhagen became popular for its scenic views and recreative opportunities with the surrounding meadows, woods and lakes, with many summer residences being built.
Many different owners have left their marks on Marienborg and its architecture. The interiors have also been modified repeatedly. Today, Marienborg stands out as a restored classicist estate with a few carefully selected modern accents.
