Ulriksdal Castle
Ulriksdal Palace, a royal residence, is located in the municipality of Solna not far from Stockholm, directly on Edsviken, an arm of the Baltic Sea.
History+
The origins of the palace date back to the years 1643 to 1645, when it was built under the name "Jacobsdal" for Reichsmarschall Jakob De la Gardie. In 1684, it was renamed Ulriksdal in honor of a deceased brother of King Charles XI. The palace later served as a residence for Gustav VI Adolf.
