Swedish Freemasons' Kristineberg Palace

Swedish Freemasons' Kristineberg Palace

Centuries-old, reimagined: a look into the transformations of the Swedish Freemasons' Kristineberg Palace, now a primary school.

Kristineberg Palace, situated in Kungsholmen, Stockholm, was constructed around 1750 by merchant Roland Schröder. The property was later acquired by the Swedish Freemasons in 1864, undergoing additional construction. In 1921, the city of Stockholm purchased the land, initiating the development of the Kristineberg district. Today, a portion of the former palace serves as the location for Kristinebergsskolan primary school. The grand, centuries-old facade conceals its numerous transformations.
