Royal splendor: A glimpse into the Stockholm Royal Stables

Nestled in the heart of the city, the Stockholm Royal Stables offers visitors a unique glimpse into the regal world of Swedish royalty.

Originally constructed between 1890 and 1894, the stables have gracefully evolved through numerous renovations.

Today, the complex stands as a testament to Sweden’s enduring commitment to its equestrian heritage. It encompasses a variety of buildings, including a riding school where equine skills are honed, a carriage museum where history unfolds through wheels and axles, and, of course, state-of-the-art horse stables where the regal horses are cared for.

The Royal Stables complex is also home to the Royal Mews, responsible for the meticulous maintenance and care of the Royal Family’s prized vehicles and their majestic Royal horses.

TEMPORARILY CLOSED 2024: The Royal Stables are temporarily closed for guided tours during 2024.
