Kungliga slottet, Stockholm Palace, Royal PalaceSweden, Stockholm
The Stockholm Royal Palace is the official residence of the Swedish monarchs on the front embankment of Stadholmen Island in the center of Stockholm.
This is one of the largest palaces in the world (608 rooms). Here are some of the outstanding attractions of Stockholm: the royal apartments, the banquet hall, the chambers of the Order of the Knights, the Treasury, the Three Crowns Palace Museum, the Arsenal and the Antique Museum of Gustav III.
The palace was built on the foundations of the former medieval castle - Tre Kronor (Three Crowns) of the middle of the XIII century, which was destroyed by fire in 1697. The remains of the old castle are on display at the Three Crowns Palace Museum. The construction of the new palace took 57 years, from 1697 to 1754.
