Lillienhoff Palace, 17th century palace in Medborgarplatsen, Sweden

The Lillienhoff Palace stands as a three-story residential structure with Dutch baroque architectural elements and a prominent corner position on Gotgatan street.

Merchant Joachim Potter, who became ennobled as Lillienhoff in 1668, commissioned architect Johan Tobias Albinus to design this palace between 1668 and 1670.

The building served as the British Embassy in 1723 and later transformed into a parish poor house before the City of Stockholm acquired it in 1900.

The ground floor houses the Snaps restaurant with an enclosed underground courtyard and outdoor patio, while upper floors contain residential apartments.

The palace's underground section gained recognition in the 1970s as a venue for discotheques, adding a modern entertainment dimension to its historical character.
