Rosendals Palace on Djurgården, east of Skansen, was built between 1823-1827. It was used as a summer retreat by King Karl XIV Johan, and later by King Oskar as an oasis away from his official duties. The palace was never used as a permanent home and was turned into a museum after the death of King Oskar II. Architect Fredrik Blom, one of the most important architects of the period, constructed the palace, whose interior, exterior and furniture designs are a unique example of the European Empire style. The Rosendals Palace is open from Tuesday to Sunday from June to August, and on weekends in September. reach the palace, catch bus no. 44, 47 or 69 to Djurgården or walk along the Djurgårdsbrunn Canal.
