Folketinget is the name of Denmark's parliament. It is often nicknamed Borgen ('the castle' in Danish) after its historic location at Christiansborg Palace.
The Parliament, which consists of 179 members; including two from Greenland and two from the Faroe Islands, has the legislative power in Denmark since the birth of the Danish Constitution in 1849.
The Danish monarch's power is limited to signing the laws that are passed by the parliament and is therefore in practice more a symbolic power.
