Aperçu

Drottningholm Castle is the official residence of the King of Sweden since 1981.

Located on the island of Lovon ( Ekero) and much of the complex is open to the public.
Designed by the architect Nicodemus Tessin has a rich history.
It used to be a summer residence for the Royal Family. In 1800 , the Castle was gifted to Queen Louise Ulrike and redesigned it in a French Rococo style.

– the Main Palace Building,
