Om
Snabba fakta: Ornate gilt carvings and a lakeside silhouette combine with a richly preserved interior, where visitors can step into royal private rooms and a theatre still used for baroque performances. Gardens unfold in formal terraces and a long allée lined with lime trees, and the Chinese pavilion nearby offers a playful contrast of exotic color and tiny lacquered rooms.
Höjdpunkter: Step behind the gilded curtains and you can smell warm beeswax and hear the creak of 18th-century pine as an authentic stage machinery from 1766, designed by Carl Fredrik Adelcrantz, still lifts entire painted scenes with hand-cranked winches during live operas. Audiences still experience performances by candlelight and period instruments, and many say the hush after the final bow feels exactly like it did more than 250 years ago.
Insidertips
- Wear comfortable shoes for gravel paths and the cobbled theatre courtyard.
- Take the ferry from central Stockholm for a scenic approach and better views than the bus.
- Photo hotspots include the lakeside façade at golden hour and the ornate Chinese Pavilion in the palace park.
- If short on time, focus on the state apartments and the park, and check Drottningholm Theatre dates separately since tours and performances run on limited days.

Har du hört talas om gratis guidade vandringar?
Efter att ha rest till över 30 länder finns det en sak jag önskar att någon hade berättat för mig från början, och det förändrade helt hur jag upplever nya städer.
Gratis guidade vandringar. Ja, faktiskt gratis. Ingen kreditkort krävs. Inga fångster.
Lokal guide, 2-3 timmar
Stora sevärdheter, dolda pärlor, lokala historier
100% dricksbaserat
Guider tjänar endast dricks, så de ger sitt absolut bästa
Du ger dricks efter eget tycke
I slutet ger du bara dricks efter eget tycke
Jag har gjort dessa i dussintals städer och de har varit höjdpunkten på nästan varje resa. Om du besöker Stockholm, Sweden, gör detta din första dag. Du kommer att tacka mig senare.
