Best Stockholm Palace Day Trips & Things to Do

The Royal Palace of Stockholm is the official residence of the King and a cultural monument open to the public year-round. Nicodemus Tessin built the Baroque palace on top of the former Tre Kronor Palace, which a fire destroyed in 1697. Stockholm Palace has more than 600 rooms, seven floors and an inner courtyard. See the Royal Apartments or visit the palace’s three museums. The Treasury vaults house Sweden’s regalia. Tre Kronor Museum explores the old palace’s medieval history. Plus, see over 200 sculptures in Gustav III’s Museum of Antiquities – open since 1794.
