Han var en byggelysten konge og lod bl.a. opføre det første Christiansborg Slot, Hirscholm Slot og Eremitageslottet. Som tilhænger af den pietistiske fromhedsbevægelse fandt Christian 6. det syndigt at more sig, og livet ved hans hof mindede nærmest om en klostertilværelse. Samtidig forsøgte han at afhjælpe en langvarig økonomisk lavkonjunktur med en række forskellige tiltag, hvoraf et af dem var af indføre det senere så forhadte Stavnsbånd. Det lykkedes Christian 6. som den første af enevældens konger, at undgå krig gennem hele sin regeringstid.Bogen indgår i Kroneserien, en serie af mindre bøger om det danske kongehus og relaterede emner udgivet i samarbejde med Kongernes Samling.

Christian VI ruled Denmark-Norway from 1730 until his death in 1746. As King he was enthusiastic about construction projects; he built the first Christiansborg Palace, Hirschholm Palace, and the Hermitage Palace. As an adherent of the Pietist religious movement, he believed it was sinful to enjoy oneself, and life at his court was reminiscent of life in a monastery. He took a number of measures to combat a long-lasting economic slump, one of which was the introduction of the hated system of adscription known as the stavnsbånd. As the first Danish absolute monarch to do so, he managed to avoid war throughout his entire reign.This book is part of the Crown Series, a series of small books on the Danish monarchy and related subjects published in cooperation with the Royal Danish Collection.
