The Royal Palace

Saw the change of the guard then a visit to the royal apartments, treasury and 3 crowns museum. Guided tour was informative. The self guided visit to the apartments, treasury and museum were great. Interesting, rewarding and worth the visit. Fascinating!

Out of the 18 years of my life, this might be one of the most incredible buildings I have ever visited. While standing outside of it, you expect it to be pretty big on the inside. I mean, it's 3 above-ground stories, covering a huge space. But, you will nonetheless be awestruck when you walk in. The entry hall has an incredibly high ceiling, with an enormous painting of cherubs and royalty. This in itself is a beautiful work of art and a great foreshadowing for the grandeur to come later in the exploration of the palace. The next area was a series of rooms containing royal and military awards and orders, vestments, and information regarding the royal family and crests. All of these rooms are incredibly ornate. The walls are gilded in addition to plentiful red paint, and the ceilings are equipped with enormous crystal chandeliers. The throne room is at the end of this, which is finished with incredibly intricate marble statues and façades. The throne itself was surprisingly small. I'd imagine probably because they spent all their money constructing the other rooms. Now, walking through the other wing of the palace, your expectations are shattered again. The rooms somehow get more ornate and a lot more red. There is no available space here not covered with a painting, gold, marble, fancy curtains, or rugs. This was an incredible way to experience the full might of royal splendor, leaving you speechless. This is a 100% MUST-SEE in Stockholm. You do not want to miss coming here.

Touristy MUST see Royal palace impresses with its grandeur architecture and design. Daily Change of the Guards is entertaining. Royal state apartments are splendid. Though I was surprised and disappointed when the supervisors of the rooms could not answer a simple question whose portrait it was on the wall or when the Palace was built ( hey tried to google ) . Please educate your stiff on simple facts as it ruins impression for thousands of tourist who travel from a far to visit the Palace

The Royal Palace in Stockholm made an incredible impression on me! I was amazed by its architecture, the richness of the decorations and the history that practically pours out of its walls. Visiting the royal chambers, the treasury and the Tre Kronor Museum was an unforgettable experience!

Beautiful 😍😊. You need to spend minimum 4 Hours to see the exhibits and to read the information about it if you want to read everything you will have to spend the hole day in it. I would recommend to see online if you can book a guide tour if you like. In the front of palace you can also see the ceremony of changing the royal guard look at the internet when will be done I highly recommend it.

This royal residence has been in the same location, in the northern part of Gamla stan, since the middle of the 13th century. It shows the wealth and power of the Swedish crown, because most forget that it had an amazing military power for many years. Now, you can see all the magnificent, beautiful costumes and glittering carriages that tell of fairytale coronations, weddings and funerals at the Swedish court.

Absolutely, to go and see palace! There is full of art history, good stuff. When we went there the time was Guard Change Ceremony time. It’s really good ceremony. If you buy tickets online on the website that’s faster for you. After 2 p.m. is starting being crowd.
