On Wednesday, January 4th, Queen Margrethe II rode in the 177-year-old carriage from Amalienborg Palace to Christiansborg, where she hosted the last of this year’s series of New Year’s receptions. The gold carriage that brought Queen Margrethe to the reception was built in 1840 for King Christian VIII. Six white horses pulled the queen’s carriage through the capital.
