About this cemetery

The Royal Cemetery is the official burial place of the Swedish royal family and has been used since 1922. It lies on the small island of Karlsborg in the Brunnsviken bay in Solna. When Gustaf VI Adolf was buried here, he was the first Swedish king since Charles IX in 1612 to be buried outside the old church.
