Admiralty House, Office building on Skeppsholmen, Stockholm, Sweden
The Admiralty House features Renaissance Revival architecture with stepped gables and corner turrets on the islet of Skeppsholmen in central Stockholm.
Dutch architect Louis Gillis designed this structure between 1647 and 1650 when the Admiralty Board relocated to Skeppsholmen from its previous location.
The building transformed from an archive to a corn stable and later a barrack before architect Fredrik Blom redesigned it in Neo-Renaissance style.
Currently housing the Swedish Tourist Association, the Admiralty House maintains its administrative functions while serving as a central point for tourism information.
The limestone portal remains the sole original architectural element from the 1650 construction, surviving multiple renovations and transformations over centuries.
