Travel companies and authorised guides

The following information is aimed at travel companies and authorised guides who wish to visit Gripsholm Castle with groups. Below, you can read about independent visits, logistics, practical information, payment and tours with a castle guide.

Independent visits

We welcome external groups to Gripsholm Castle, but due to the coronavirus pandemic new routines apply.

Guided tours may not be held inside. All visitors must move individually inside the palace, in order to keep a safe distance from each other. Groups may only gather outside the castle in such a way that it is easy to maintain safe distancing and for others visitors to pass by.

Our guided tours are cancelled until further notice, but self-guided tours of the Royal Palace and Drottningholm are available via the Swedish Royal Palaces app. Our audioguides for the Royal Palace and the Chinese Pavilion are also being made available at Royalpalaces.se.

Logistics

The entrance to the castle is in the Inner Courtyard. All visitors should make their way around the castle in the same direction, by room number.

The Royal Gift Shop has an entrance from the Outer Gate and an exit around the corner to the left of the Outer Door facing the water.
