For children
The palace's grand state rooms, the mediaeval gate at the Tre Kronor Museum and the crowns in the Treasury are just a few of the exciting things for children to see. Our younger visitors will particularly enjoy activity trails.
Note!
In accordance to the latest stricter restrictions for the region of Stockholm, by the Public Health Agency, the decision has been made to close Drottningholm Palace and the Royal Palace in Stockholm, from 30 October until further notice.
In accordance with the Public Health Agency of Sweden’s recommendations and the Government’s directives the guided tours of the palace are cancelled until further notice.
Animal safari – activity trail for children
Wild animals are hiding in the large rooms of the palace. On the walls, on the ceilings, on objects and on furniture. Some are large, and some are small… Now it's a matter of finding them!
Collect a map from the front desk, and turn a tour of the palace into a voyage of discovery. The animals on the map can be found in the state rooms, and it's up to you to find them.
Carry out the task by yourself during ordinary opening hours. The activity is suitable for children of all ages.
Extra programmes during school holidays
During the Easter, autumn and Christmas holidays, there will be additional events for children accompanied by an adult. During the school holidays, there will be tasks that children can carry out themselves (accompanied by an adult). Programmes are advertised in menu Calendar.
