Join a guided tour of the Palace

On Saturdays and Sundays during the summer, you can join a guided tour of the palace.

During the tour, you’ll get insight into how people lived and worked here. You’ll learn about the people and the place, from the 1600s to 1930. For example, you’ll hear more about Maria Sofia De la Gardie, the last private owners, the Lagergren family, and the daily and festive duties of the servants.

On the main floor, you’ll visit the dining room, serving room, library, and salons. The upper floor features bedrooms, bathrooms, and a small Catholic chapel. The tour is held in Swedish, but you’ll receive a written guide for each room we visit (English and German). Our guides speak English, and are happy to answer questions if you have any.
