Welcome to one of Europe's largest and most vibrant castles. The castle is HM the King's official residence and essential parts of the monarchy's representation take place here, while large parts of the castle are open all year round. Located in Gamla Stan or The Old Town, The Royal Palace of Stockholm has more than 1,400 rooms, 11 floors, and only 1 balcony. The Palace is also the largest official Royal residence in Europe, even larger than Buckingham Palace in London.
There are many attractions here - the Treasury with the royal regalia, Museum Three Crowns about the castle's medieval history, and not least the Representation floors with the pompous parade rooms. During the summer months, Gustav III's antiquities museum and the Castle Church are also open. The changing of the guards is popular with visitors, as is the Slottsboden shop.
Built-in the Italian Baroque style and with its interiors mainly in the Rococo style, the Royal Palace is considered to be one of the most emblematic buildings of the Baroque era in Europe. The offices of the Royal Court, as well as the Treasury Museum, the Armory Museum, the Tre Kronor Museum, and the Gustav III Museum of Antiquities, are located here.
