House of Nobility, Baroque palace in Gamla Stan, Stockholm, Sweden

The House of Nobility features copper-clad domed towers, ornate sandstone decorations, and a grand entrance portal with classical columns.

The building, completed in 1674 under architect Jean de la Vallée, served as the assembly hall for Swedish nobility in the Parliament until 1866.

The Session Hall displays 2,326 coats of arms on its walls, representing every noble family ever registered in Sweden since the 1600s.

Guided tours of the building operate from Monday to Friday between 11:00 and 12:00, with advance reservations required through the official website.

The building maintains detailed genealogical records of Swedish noble families and continues to update them every three years.
