The Riddarholm Church is a church founded around 1300. It was originally built as a Catholic monastery for the Gråbrödrakloster, founded in 1270 and belonging to the Franciscan Order, after being given by King Magnus Ladulås.
The Hedvig Eleonora church, recognisable by its octagonal shape, was built between 1669 and 1737. The imposing dome, in a style different from the rest of the building, was built later in 1866-1868.
The Royal Chapel was built with the Royal Palace in Stockholm. The chapel was opened in 1754, six years before the completion of the royal palace. The castle church is still used by the royal family during religious ceremonies.
