context_page_description: Næsseslottet is an 18th-century country house located on the shores of lake Furesøen at Holte north of Copenhagen, Denmark. The name, which translates as "Peninsula House", is a reference to the buildings setting on a narrow peninsula which extends from the east shore of the lake. The estate had previously been a royal farm known as Dronningegård and this name has long been associated with the locale.
context_section_description: Frédéric de Coninck charged the Flemish landscape architect  Jean Frédéric Henry de Drevon (1734-1797 with the design of the surrounding parklands. Drevon was inspired by the manor house gardens of southern England and created the first Romantic garden in Denmark. It was planted with exotic trees many of which still grow there today. The pavilions in the park are not from the original English garden.
  The park is also home to a number of monuments and decorative features. The sculptor Carl Frederik Stanley (c. 1738–1813) created several monument for the park, including one to trade and shipping. Johannes Wiedewelt (1731–1802)   contributed with an obelisk and ornamental vases.
  The two pavilions and the stables were designed by Axel Berg  (1856–1929) and are from about 1900.
