Tullgarn Palace is an 18th-century royal summer residence located on the shores of the Baltic Sea in Södermanland. The architecture displays a blend of Rococo and Gustavian styles, featuring interiors designed by Jean Eric Rehn. It served as the favorite summer home for King Gustaf V and Queen Victoria during the early 20th century. The palace grounds include a large English-style landscape park and a working orangery. Visitors access the interior exclusively through guided tours that highlight original furnishings from the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The estate spans a significant coastal area including forests and agricultural lands. The palace reflects the personal tastes of the Swedish royal family, preserved as it appeared during the late Victorian era.
