Norska Ministerhotellet, Diplomatic residence in Blasieholmen, Stockholm, Sweden

The Norska Ministerhotellet stands at Södra Blasieholmshamnen with a facade displaying French-influenced architectural elements and detailed window frames from the 1650s construction period.

General Arvid Forbus initiated the construction of this building in the 1650s, which later became the residence for Norwegian state council members during the Swedish-Norwegian union.

The building served as a center for diplomatic relations between Sweden and Norway, hosting numerous official meetings and governmental functions through different historical periods.

Located at coordinates 59.329167, 18.076667, the building remained a ministerial residence until 1905 when Norway established its separate embassy following the dissolution of the union.

Norwegian State Minister Ole Richter ended his life at his office in this building on June 15, 1888, marking a significant moment in Swedish-Norwegian diplomatic history.
