Christmas hunt
Bring your children and grandchildren to the Royal Palace's state rooms during the Christmas holidays. We need your help looking for elves and escaped animals.
Elf hunt at Christmas
The elf hunt will take place during the Christmas holidays in the Royal Apartments. A number of silver elves are hiding in the grand rooms of the palace. Use an elf hunt map, available in Swedish, English and Finnish, to find the elves and cross them off the list. Everyone who returns a map will receive a reward. And five lucky participants will also win an extra prize.
Animal safari all year round
There are also lots of animals in the rooms of the Palace – on the walls, on the ceilings, on objects and on furniture. Some are large and some are small – tiny, even! Now it's a matter of finding them! The animal safari activity trail be carried out all year round. The map is available from the front desk.
