The Yellow Room
The Yellow Room
In this room, you can see how newer generations have left their mark on the castle’s interior. Among other treasures, you will find the elegant Louis XVI furniture set, which was the dowry of the young Jessie in 1875 when she married the future count of Egeskov, Julius. The furnishings have been restored on several occasions, and the gold leaf on the chairs was applied by Countess Nonni in the 1970s. They have since been reupholstered under the expert guidance of Princess Alexandra and Count Michael, giving them a modern expression. It is not only the furniture that is adorned with gold leaf—the shutters and doors, also crafted by Countess Nonni, carry the same decoration. It is this continual renewal that, among other things, gives the castle its character shaped by successive generations.
