Kungliga Slottet

  Kungliga Slottet, the Royal Palace of Stockholm, is situated in the heart of Gamla Stan, just a stone's throw from the iconic Stortorget square. Constructed in the 18th century, this Baroque-style building serves as the official residence of the Swedish monarch and houses several museums. A fascinating fact is that it contains over 600 rooms, making it one of the largest palaces in Europe. Visitors can explore its rich history by touring the royal apartments, the Treasury, and the Museum of Antiquities. Throughout the year, occasional changing of the guard ceremonies take place outside, adding to the palace's allure.
