Royal architecture and
history

Why locals love it

Drottningholms slott is the Royal Palace and residence of the Swedish royal family. They do actually live there, although a big part of the palace is open for guided tours. Highly recommended to take one (even if you're a Swede)! Afterwards you can take a walk in the beautiful gardens and visit the so-called pleasure palace - the Chinese pavilion.

Why you should visit it

This is the place to indulge in history and architecture. Even as a Swede it is fascinating to walk through the royal chambers getting to know more about life as a royalty several hundred years ago. What about being washed every day with an audience or letting a life guard sleep in your bureau? The surroundings is a peaceful escape from the city.

Hello Ruth! The entrance fee is 130 SEK for adults + 30 SEK for the tour (approx. 16€ altogether). More or less half the price for students and children 7+. You find more info here: https://www.kungligaslotten.se/english.html Good luck!
