Pardon me if I missed an explanation of this question. I just saw an episode for the first time. Well done.

Borgen, related to "Burcht" (in Dutch, my mother tongue) = "Fortress" in English.
In the broader sense to be interpreted here as the "chateau" (fr) where the "people in charge" reside.

Borgen is short for Christiansborg which is the place of residence of the danish parliament. Borgen can be translated to "The Fortress" in english.
