Gråsten Palace was originally built as a hunting château in the middle of the 16th century. After it burnt down in 1603, a new palace was built. This new palace was most likely located where the southern wing of the current palace stands. Lord Chancellor Frederik Ahlefeldt commissioned the construction of a massive baroque palace in around 1700, which, however, also burnt down, in 1757. The current palace was built in two stages: the southern wing in 1759 and the main building in 1842. Visitors only have access to the palace garden and the church.
