Parliament House of Sweden, Parliament building in Helgeandsholmen, Stockholm, Sweden.

The Parliament House spans across half of Helgeandsholmen island, featuring a grand Neoclassical design with Baroque Revival elements in central Stockholm.

The construction period between 1897 and 1905 marked a transition from the previous Parliament location on Riddarholmen to this modern legislative center.

The Parliament building includes dedicated spaces for legislative sessions, committee meetings, and ceremonies such as the Right Livelihood Award presentations.

Guided tours of the Parliament Building allow visitors to learn about Swedish democracy while exploring the legislative chambers and historical architecture.

The Parliament building required over 9,000 oak piles for foundation reinforcement and contains materials from various Swedish natural stones and marbles.
