Karlberg Palace, Royal palace in Huvudsta, Stockholm, Sweden

The palace spans along the Karlberg Canal with two wings facing the waterfront, featuring Neo Classical architecture and French Baroque influences.

Built in 1634 by Lord High Admiral Carl Carlsson Gyllenhielm, who merged three medieval villages into a single estate named after himself.

The Military Academy Karlberg maintains its educational legacy within the palace walls, training future military officers in a historical setting.

The palace grounds remain open to the public daily from 6:00 AM to 10:00 PM, offering access to the surrounding park areas.

The park contains a temple initially dedicated to Neptune, later renamed to Diana, and marks the burial site of King Charles XII's dog.
