The Hermitage Castle and the Great Hunt

Overview

When the Hubertus hunt is launched every autumn in Jægersborg Animal Park, it is not just a competition, but also a tribute to an ancient form of hunting. And in the middle of it all stands the Hermitage Palace, where the all-powerful king could partake of his sumptuous lunches once the prey had been slaughtered and prepared. In the broadcast, the story of the so-called parforce hunt is told, and it is demonstrated how the Hermitage Palace's interior emphasizes the hunt as a theme.
