That sounds an interesting subject to study, will it be a degree you are working towards?

A guide to Stockholm with a diagram of the palace says that the family's apartments are in the west wing facing the formal gardens, not the lake.

I have read somewhere that CP Victoria has her own appartment of 3 rooms and a kitchen in the same wing, with one (parttime?) servant/ maid to cook and clean and so on for her.

Yes its true that Victoria lives in an own apartment. So does Madeleine and Carl Philip but they live in the actual palace. Victorias apartment is in a smaller house close to the palace. I don´t know if you can see it on the pictures...
Dont know for sure if she has any servants.
I doubt she has one... maybe someone who clean the apartment and things like that, but she´s said that she likes to eat breakfast on her own and that she enjoys having friends over for dinner.

I wonder how much she still is in her "apartment". She travels a lot, and I guess, when she´s at home she´s rather at Daniel´s home :P

Yeah, she probobly spends a lot of time with Daniel in his apartment. Just like Madeleine and Carl Philip spends most of their time with Jonas and Emma.

Looks like the royal couple is all alone at Drottningholm now :P

my first day as a member on this MB.

excellent layout and content.

I see that in addition to the more important slotts in Stockholm like Drottningholm, Kungliga Slott, you also make reference to Solliden. How about Storlein?? Has that place been discussed in the past, and how might I find it? Or will be 'opened' any time soon?

Thanks,
and best regards
