Drottningholm Palace, Theater, Café

Your destination is the area’s crown jewel: Drottningholm Palace, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Situated near Stockholm’s city center on the island of Lovön in Lake Mälaren, this Versailles-inspired palace has been home to the Swedish royal family since 1981. Its many cultural treasures include a well-preserved 18th-century theater, perfectly manicured gardens, and a Chinese pavilion.

Step back in time as your guided tour takes you through the State Apartments, brimming with opulent furnishings, sparkling chandeliers, and important works of art dating back to the 17th century. At the Court Theater, a specialist guide will take you behind the scenes to discover its original sets, stage machinery, and props that have been in use since the theater’s first performance in 1766.

At the Drottningholm Palace Café, relax and enjoy refreshments before reboarding your transportation for the return drive to the pier.
