The Royal Danish Military Academy (Danish: Hærens Officersskole) educates and commissions all officers for the Royal Danish Army. The Military Academy function was initiated in 1713 by request of King Frederick IV on inspiration from the Naval Academy.

The academy has, since 1869, been located at Frederiksberg Palace in central Copenhagen.
