Utzon’s Global Village in Fredensborg
the Fredensborghusene is a home for returning Danes, many of whom bring with them rich international experience from living abroad
For more than 60 years, Fredensborghusene has been home to a senior community built on a deep understanding of how to balance privacy and togetherness. Here, there is room to be yourself – and to take part in shared meals and social traditions. Residents of Fredensborghusene enjoy one of the highest life expectancies in Denmark. The Danish architect Jørn Utzon (1918–2008) designed Fredensborghusene, which is located on the outskirts of Fredensborg – not far from the royal palace Fredensborg Slot.
