Haga Palace, Solna
Haga Palace
http://i133.photobucket.com/albums/q...arkenorg-1.jpg The Haga Palace, which is located in Haga Park in the municipality of Solna, was built between 1802 and 1804. The Palace was commissioned by King Gustav IV Adolf. The current King, Carl XVI Gustav, and his four sisters - Princesses Margaretha, Birgitta, Désirée and Christina - were all born at the Palace; where the family (the five children and their parents, Prince Gustav Adolf and Princess Sibylla) lived until Prince Gustav Adolf's death in 1947. Haga Palace was transferred to the Swedish Government in 1966 by the then King, Gustav VI Adolf. The Government today uses the Palace for guests of the Government. Gustav III's Pavillion and the Copper Tents lie inside the grounds of Haga Park. Haga Park - Kungahuset [NS4 version] (Picture from Eko Parken)
