What to Expect
Residence of Swedish Monarchs
Lots of mysteries and secrets are hidden within the walls of this palace, with many hidden rooms that an ordinary person might not notice right away. Why did the old palace burn down and how was the new one built? You will discover all of this. You will see the working cabinets, ceremonial halls, and the royal family's treasures. Learn about the history of the palace (it won't be boring, I promise). Finally, the secret of the greatness of the beautiful northern kingdom and the secrets of its prosperity will be revealed to you. And of course, we will see where royal weddings take place and the ceremonial changing of the guard. You will even have the opportunity to try on the crown and royal mantle!
Gamla Stan – Heart of Stockholm
You will take a walk through the Old Town, or Gamla Stan, with its colorful houses and authentic atmosphere. Squeeze through narrow streets, make a wish near the smallest monument in Europe. Decode what is written on a runic stone and which of the churches was happy, and which one was cursed. Learn about events from half a century ago on Stortorget, the secrets of King Jean-Baptiste Bernadotte, and the terrible secret of Queen Christina of Sweden. Taste the most delicious buns from Karlsson. And get a glimpse of modern life in Stockholm.
