Falkonergården

'The Falkoner's House') was a royal Danish facility for stabling of peregrine falcons for falconry located in Frederiksberg outside Copenhagen from 1670.

Im 1662, Crown Prince Christian went on a European journey which took him to Louis XIV's court where he was first introduced to falconry.

It was situated next to the Ladegård Canal at his mother queen downer Sophie Amalie's new summer retreat Prinsessegården in Hollænderbyen (as Frederiksberg was then called) to the west of Copenhagen.

A stone bridge was built across the Ladegård Canal from where a track ran north, providing royal hunting parties with a shortcut on their way to Jægersborg Dyrehave.

[3] Falkoner Allé was opened to the public after Hømarken (literally "Hayfield"), an area to the north belonging to Ladegården, originally a farm under Copenhagen Castle, was auctioned off.
