Kristineberg Palace

Kristineberg Palace

Kristineberg Palace in Kungsholmen, Stockholm was built around 1750 for the businessman R. Schröder. The palace was surrounded by parks and the property included a great deal of the surrounding land.

In 1864 the property was bought by the Swedish Freemasonry and additional construction on the palace was made.

Stockholm City bought the land in 1921 and started building the Kristineberg district, and today part of the palace is used as a school.
