Beautiful Palace! The love story of King Carl Gustav and Queen Silvia is very beautiful. Happy 50th anniversary to both of them. Buying tickets in advance is recommended. The entrance is very tricky to locate. Many people were lost. Please put better signs.

The Royal Palace of Sweden, which is still used today for the official duties of the monarch. With more than 600 rooms, it is one of the largest royal palaces in Europe. The palace stands on the site of Tre Kronor, a medieval fortress that was largely destroyed in a devastating fire in 1697. It was subsequently rebuilt in the Baroque style, giving it its present appearance. The Royal Treasury, the Royal Stables and ceremonial carriages, and the Changing of the Guard ceremony are among its most popular attractions. ※ Included in the Go City Pass.

The Stockholm Royal Palace is a grand, accessible historic landmark that beautifully reflects Sweden’s approachable monarchy. Exploring its regal halls instantly brings to mind the royal family’s touching history, including legendary love stories like King Carl Gustaf and Queen Silvia. For me, it evoked the modern fairy tale of Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel. Recalling their moving wedding, Prince Daniel’s heartfelt tears and beautiful speech during their ceremony 16 years ago perfectly highlight the genuine warmth that defines this beloved royal family.

Stockholm Palace or Kungliga slottet, is the official residence of the Swedish monarch. It is located on Stadsholmen in Gamla stan (the Old Town). Designed in the Italian Baroque style by architect Nicodemus Tessin the Younger, it was built on the site of the former 'Tre Kronor Castle' after it burned down in 1697. The facade is decorated with several large bronze and stone sculptures. One can see a yellow sentry box in the foreground in my picture, which is used by the Royal Guards (Hogvakten) who have protected the palace since 1523. This happens to be the official residence and primary workplace of the Swedish monarch in Gamla stan, Stockholm. The western wing, specifically seen in my image, is known as the 'King's side'. This façade represents 'The Male Qualities' and the King himself, featuring masculine and martial attributes. It is adorned with nine relief medallions of Swedish kings (from Gustav Vasa to Karl XI) and ten 18 ft tall female sculptures known as caryatids. The curving free standing wings that enclose the outer courtyard were inspired by the Teatro delle Acque at Villa Aldobrandini near Rome. The palace was completed in stages, with the royal family moving in by 1754. The outer courtyard in front of this facade is where the daily changing of the Guard ceremony takes place. The palace has undergone extensive facade restorations, with the eighth stage which completed in 2021. While the King and Queen live at Drottningholm Palace, Stockholm Palace remains the official state residence, used for receptions and as the workplace for the Royal Court. My visit during 2025 was worth of all the times spent close to these historic buildings.
