Tessin Palace
Tessinska palatset, the 1690s town palace the architect Nicodemus Tessin the Younger built for himself, faces Slottsbacken with an elegant Baroque facade beside the Royal Palace.
The building is now the official residence of the Governor of Stockholm, so you see it from the street. Look at the facade from Slottsbacken, the wide slope running down from the Royal Palace. Storkyrkan and Stortorget are both a short walk away.
