Rosendal Palace (Swedish: Rosendals slott) is a Swedish palace pavilion located on Djurgården, an island in central Stockholm. It was built between 1823 and 1827 for King Charles XIV John, the first Bernadotte king of Sweden.

Rosendal Palace was largely designed by Fredrik Blom, one of the leading architects of the time, who received a royal commission to draw and build the palace building after the original buildings burned down. Fredrik August Lidströmer, Stockholm's City Architect from 1818 to 1824, had been King Charles XIV's primary architect at the construction of the original Rosendal Palace. After it burned down in 1819, Lidströmer also created the initial drawings for the replacement palace. These were then adapted and redrawn by Fredrik Blom, who had been an assistant to Jonas Lidströmer.

The palace stands today largely as it did in Charles XIV John's lifetime. During the summer months the palace is open to visitors for guided tours. Prince Carl Philip, Duke of Varmland and his wife Princess Sofia lived at Rosendal Palace between 2015–2017 while their permanent home, Villa Solbacken, was being renovated.^[1]
