    The centre of Sweden's democracy is surely worth a visit when in Stockholm. There are guided tours to see the parliament inside, which may not be one of the world's most impressive, but is functional and modern. If short on time, I would recommend taking a quick look from the outside and then prioritising walks through the city centre instead.

    This parliament House is situated in the center of the Stockholm City.You will get a good view of the parliament from the bridge since it's near to the bridge. The entry is not free.Guided tours is also available.It was closed during my visit.So I saw from outside,clicked few photos and went away. I would recommend to view this beautiful building from outside as there are many other architectural buildings with dedicated guided tours.So you can make use there.

    I did not think I was going to be impressed but the Swedish Parliament but I love when I am proved wrong – a very proud local Stockholm guide did an amazing job over the course of an hour describing how politics work in Sweden (the Speaker of the Parliament is more important than the Prime Minister) and the inter workings of all of the political parties (there are more than fifty, 15 of which are big and 8 of which are represented in 349 seats currently) as we toured the massive structure. My third favorite part of the tour was walking around the real hallways as Parliment was out of session for the Summer and getting to admire the little details like the 29 logos around the ceiling, geographically ordered showing all of the counties in the country. The second best part was actually getting to sit in the red seats that the old, bi-partisan parliament used to use but that are now seldom occupied as the government needed a much bigger space. And the best part was getting to see the main room that you see on TV, the Riksdagen. Our free tour didn’t get to go on the floor but certain people did as they were with a member of parliament (the guy in white in the photo below) – still so cool! Like Share

    The building complex was designed by Aron Johansson in the Neoclassical style, with a centered Baroque Revival style facade section.[1] Parliament House was constructed between 1897 and 1905.

    The Parliament has a classical architecture worth watching and walking around the waterfront area. It’s located next to the Royal palace and a few minutes walk from here on one side, is the city hall and on the other is the old town.

    Ich hatte heute das Glück, an einer Führung durch den schwedischen Reichstag teilnehmen zu dürfen. Dazu muss man wissen: Es werden nur geführte Gruppen hineingelassen. Die Führungen sind kostenlos und sehr aufschlussreich. Eine vorherige Anmeldung ist nicht notwendig. Termine sind am Aushang bekanntgegeben.

    Really amazing place, connected by bridges as it sits on rivers. The two buildings are connected by underground tunnels. The architecture and the Attention to detail on the outside is magnificent. I can say I am a big fan of Scandinavian architecture!

    My God! I can't believe that the tour in the Riksdaghuset is free. You just have to be there on time and fall in line to be in the cut. The tour is for 45 mins and worth it if you're interested in the government structure of Sweden or just politics in general. The tour is always on time and when we were there, we even saw some MPs being interviewed.

    Beautiful building with an informative guided tour in English. Make sure to get in line early as there is a cap, and bring some SEK change for the lockers because you can't take anything inside other than your camera. Tour guides were a bit grouchy but willing to answer questions. Worth a visit if interested in Sweden's political system.

    The Parliament House (Riksdagshuset) is the seat of the parliament of Sweden, the Riksdag. The building complex was designed by Aron Johansson in the Neoclassical style, with a centered Baroque Revival style facade section. It was constructed between 1897 and 1905.

    Excellent (english speaking) tour! Passionate, providing as much context as needed on a political setup basis, taking time to answer questions or provide unique insights! If you’re interested in understanding the country and its inner workings in some more depth, go there. It was a great example of ‘bringing your whole self to work’. Loved it really!

    Beautiful building. Easy to acces with metro. You can enter it for free during debates, where truly nice stuff will guide you around. Inside was very nice, we got lockers to leave our stuff. Cleans and pretty. Worth seeing

    The Swedish Parliament House exceeded my expectations in every aspect. From the grand architecture that seamlessly blends tradition with modernity to the well-maintained facilities, it's clear that great care is taken to ensure visitors have a comfortable and enjoyable time. The guided tour was informative, providing insights into the parliamentary process and current affairs. I left with a newfound appreciation for Swedish governance. A must-visit for history enthusiasts and those seeking a well-rounded cultural experience.

    It’s a FREE tour that lasts about an hour. You can’t book in advance and have to be in the first 28 in the queue to get in. There’s airport style security inside. Once in you get shown round many parts of both buildings include the main Parliament chamber, a committee room and the second chamber. It’s really good especially as it’s free. You might also end up being escorted around by a hunky security guard too if you’re lucky 😉

    The Parliament House in Stockholm is definitely a must-visit place! It's incredibly photogenic, with its grand architecture and beautiful surroundings. The guards there are very helpful and knowledgeable, and they do a great job of guiding visitors through the building. The whole experience of visiting Parliament House is absolutely amazing and should not be missed when in Stockholm.

    A little bit of a theater experience. But a couple people in the audience started shouting at the actors that were debating something. One had even glued his hand to prevent guards from removing him. Was fun

    Big building. I didn’t have a chance to go inside since it wasn’t in my plan. If you want to go inside the building, you will have to be in the tour.

    Looks pretty imposing from the outside. Located close to the central part of the city. They have guided tours here, which am told is good. Located next to the Royal Palace.

  • 5/5 Dániel K. 5 years ago on Google
    It's interesting, informative and free. You can visit the Swedish Parliament once a day, around 13:00 (only at the weekend). The tour guides are very nice and really interactive with the visitors. Thumbs up!
