Tullgarn Palace is a former summer residence located on the Häggnäsviken Bay in Trosa, Sörmland.
The Palace was built in the 1720s, and was acquired for the crown in 1772 by King Gustav III, who leant the Palace to his younger brother Duke Fredrik Adolf.
Major interior changes were made following 1881, when King Gustav V took over the Palace with his consort, Queen Victoria.

The Blue Salon, Tullgarn Palace's parade room, has during this year been under careful painting restoration, which should be ready in November.

Beautiful palace. I suppose no longer used as the kings summer residence since the Kings prefer the Soliden palace?

You are correct. Tullgarn haven't been used as an official residence since the days of King Gustaf V, the great grandfather of King Carl XVI Gustaf who was King between 1907-1950.

Tullgarn is still an official Royal Residence and the Royal Family has access to a guest apartment there for when they are visiting the Palace or hosting an event there but no one lives there anymore.

The Swedish royal summer palace was built 1720-27 by French architects Joseph-Gabriel Destain for Count Magnus Julius De la Gardie. In 1771 it was bought by the State as a summer residence for Gustaf III's youngest brother Prince Fredric (1750-1803). Gustaf V (1858-1950) was the last royal to use it as a regular summer residence.

When Crown Prince Gustaf (V) married Princess Victoria of Baden in 1881 they were given Tullgarn as their summer residence. They received many guests here and in the 1890's Victoria's first cousin Emperor Wilhelm II of Germany arrived on a visit onboard his ship Hohenzollern. This was a happy occasion and another special occasion happened in 1909 Tsar Nicolas II of Russia came with his whole family onboard their ship Standart. They spent the night onboard their ship as they were worried for the risk of an assassination attempt.

Tullgarn Palace with the ramps leading up to the terrace. Gustaf V used to go out fishing with a local fisherman when he lived here. The royal family and their court used to go out by boat to some small island and have picnics in the summer. Servants would set up tables decorated with fine china, silver and crystal glasses and the king thought it was all very simple and basic.
https://www.instagram.com/p/BXWKoVqn4LY/?taken-by=hakan_groth
The wings on either side of the terrace contained guest bedrooms. The small rooms still retain their Neoclassical decor and furniture from the early 19th century.

Prince Fredric started an ambitious rebuilding and redecorating program of Tullgarn in the 1780s. He hired some of the best decorators at the time, the brothers Louis and Jean-Baptiste Masreliez, Pehr Ljung and Ernst Philip Thoman. This work wasn't completed until 1807, four years after his death. Work with the Dining Room, the largest room, started in the late 1790s. In 1881 the walls room was painted in dark colours imitating oak panelling and furnished with Baroque style chairs and table fashionable at the time. Gustaf VI Adolf had this and many other rooms restored back to how it originally was in the 1950s.

A pastel portrait of Prince Fredric of Sweden, Duke of Östergötland (1750-1803) by Alexander Roslin, 1775. The arrangement with the green silk taffeta curtain is a reconstruction of an original arrangement to protect the delicate pastel colours from too much light. The Prince never married but had several mistresses, the longest lasting was Sophie Hagman (1758-1826), a ballet dancer. She was presented at Court where she was well liked by Gustaf III and she became the Prince's official mistress with the King's approval. Sophie had her own house here at Tullgarn called Bellevue.

Gustaf V's Billiards Room at Tullgarn was decorated in the late 19th century. The large painting on the wall depicts the Russian ship Standart together with the Swedish Royal ship Drott (in the background) on the occasion of the last Tsar's visit to Gustaf V at Tullgarn in June 1909. This was after the official state visit to Stockholm which turned out to be the last such foreign trip for the Russian Imperial family.

The chairs, sofa and table were also made in Germany. It original had a floral carpet and palms in Chinese pots. The French Louis XVI chimneypiece survives from the 18th century.

On either side are portraits of two of Louis XV of France's mistresses, copies by Alexander Roslin after Jean Marc Nattier. The long Gustavian sofa and chairs are by Eric Öhrmark.

The king was born a prince of Holstein-Gottorp, ruled as Prince-Bishop of Lübeck 1727-50 and was elected heir and crown prince of Sweden in 1743. He succeeded as king in 1751 and was the father of Gustaf III, Carl XIII, Prince Fredric and Princess Sophia Albertina. He was a popular king who had little power which suited him fine, but his imperious queen Lovisa Ulrica thought otherwise and tried and failed to stage a coup d'etat in 1756 to restore royal power.

The State Bedroom at Tullgarn was part of the suite of official rooms. It was intended as the bedroom of the wife of Prince Fredric. As he never married, the first to occupy it was his sister Princess Sophia Albertina after it was completed in 1806 by Jean-Baptiste Masreliez. It was later used by Queen Joséphine 1830-76 and by Queen Victoria 1881-1930. The French Louis XVI style green silk damask by Tassinari et Châtel was installed a few years ago.

The Blue Cabinet is a so-called print room with a set of hand coloured prints by Volpato and Ducros from their 'Vue de Rome et de ses environs' published in 1780 glued directly on to the walls. They were unfortunately varnished so they have yellowed with time. The floor is covered with a hand painted canvas by Prince Fredric's court painter Anders Hultgren. It is a very rare survival of such a kind of floor since it was covered by a carpet in the 19th century. The commode is a work by Georg Haupt c 1780 and the pole-screen was embroidered by Princess Sophia Albertina.

At the website of the Royal Palaces
Tullgarn, near Trosa in Södermanland, is one of our most popular royal destinations and is less than an hour away from Stockholm by car. Tullgarn Palace was the summer palace of King Gustaf V and Queen Viktoria. The palace was originally built for Duke Fredrik Adolf in the 1770s. The palace park has avenues of lime trees, and makes a delightful spot for a picnic.

Escape from the "State Prison" - Summer at Tullgarn
Gustaf V and his family spent many long summers at Tullgarn. Queen Victoria, who in dark times called the Royal Palace the "State Prison", loved animals and nature. At Tullgarn, by the sparkling bay and greenery, she received light and air.
Even though Tullgarn Palace remains closed until further notice, the park is a visit destination in itself, well worth a trip. A walk through Tullgarn Palace Park is a walk from the 17th century to the 20th century - from Carl Hårlemans linden tree avenues to Gustaf V and Queen Victoria's exotic tree species as a Japanese screen figure. Here are several old park buildings - Victoria's stable, the greenhouse and the inn. The inn houses a castle café which opens on June 13, and is then open Tuesday through Sunday. Ask for a takeaway if you want to enjoy a snack or lunch in the park. On the web are several recipes from the archives, including Gustaf V's Tullgarnspaj.

Tullgarn Palace Park and Cafe
During Gustav V and Victoria's summers at Tullgarn Palace, croquet was sometimes played in the beautiful linden tree avenue, coffee drinks in the orangery and boat excursions were a big part of summer life. Even today, the linden tree avenue, the orangery and the boathouse remain and can be discovered on a walk through the park.
On Saturday, Tullgarn Palace café opens. Here are places both inside and outside, if you want to settle down in the park, just ask for takeaway.

A modern kitchen
In 1881, Crown Prince Gustaf (V) married Princess Victoria of Baden and Tullgarn became their summer palace. Several of the palace's interiors have survived since their time, and differ from the palace's many 18th -century furnishings. Among other things, Gustaf V had the palace kitchen modernized, which now had a stainless steel sink with water taps, water heater, cold room, heating shelf, food lift, cutting machine and coffee grinder.
