Hovförvaltningens hus, Administrative building near Stockholm Palace, Sweden

Hovförvaltningens hus is a stone building with baroque style elements situated directly opposite Stockholm Palace in the Old Town. The tall fire wall facing the Finnish Church gives the structure a distinctive presence along the narrow streets of Gamla Stan.

Construction took place between 1911 and 1912 following designs by architect Erik Josephson, replacing the former Indebetou House on the same site. This replacement marked a shift in the area as older structures gave way to modern administrative needs of the Royal Court.

The building's name comes from the Royal Court Administration, which manages the court's properties; today the Swedish National Property Board owns it and the court has use of about 25 apartments. The site was previously occupied by the Indebetou House, demolished to make way for the new building that fills the entire Europa mindre block.

The building sits at Slottsbacken 2 in the Old Town and is easily accessible by public transportation. This location works well for a walking tour of the narrow streets of Gamla Stan, where visitors can explore other royal and historical sites nearby.

Critics called the building a "scandal house"; Albert Lilienberg wrote in Arkitektur that it dominated Slottsbacken's upper part, and Ragnar Östberg joked that its walls reached a hand across the palace to Aron Johansson's Parliament House on Helgeandsholmen, which he had dubbed a "German scarecrow".
