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! Autumn 2021 the Royal Apartments are open. The Treasury and Museum Three Crowns (Tre Kronor) will remain closed until further notice.
Activity trails for children
Collect a map from the front desk, and turn a tour of the palace into a voyage of discovery. Carry out the task by yourself during ordinary opening hours. The activity is suitable for children of all ages.
Animal safari
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!
At home with...
The Royal Palace has been home to many royals over the years. They all commissioned various artists to paint or sculpt portraits in which they look particularly regal. Can you find them?
Extra programmes during school holidays
During the Easter, autumn and Christmas holidays, there will be additional events for children. During the school holidays, there will be tasks that children can carry out themselves (accompanied by an adult).
Programmes are advertised in menu Calendar.
