Ulriksdal Palace, Royal palace in Solna Municipality, Sweden

The palace stands on the banks of Edsviken Lake within the National City Park, featuring a three-story structure with a lantern roof and lakeside wings.

Jacob De la Gardie commissioned architect Hans Jacob Kristler to build the palace between 1638 and 1645, initially naming it Jacobsdal before Queen Hedvig Eleonora renamed it in 1684.

The Orangery houses an exhibition of Swedish sculptures from the National Museum collection, representing different periods of national artistic development.

Visitors can access guided tours of the palace interior, which displays furnishings from the 1600s through the 1900s, including collections from Gustaf VI Adolf.

The palace contains Confidencen, a structure converted into a theater by Queen Louisa Ulrika in 1753, making it the oldest theater building in Sweden.
