Rigsdagen Rigsdagen Rigsdagen () was the name of the national legislature of Denmark from 1849 to 1953. "Rigsdagen" was Denmark's first parliament, and it was incorporated in the Constitution of 1849. It was a bicameral legislature, consisting of two houses, the "Folketing" and the "Landsting". The distinction between the two houses was not always clear, as they had equal power. In 1953, a new constitution was approved by referendum and adopted, with the result that "Rigsdagen" and the "Landsting" were eliminated in favor of a unicameral legislature under the name of the "Folketing". "Rigsdagen", like today's "Folketing", was located in Christiansborg
