Royal Court of Sweden

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Royal Court of Sweden is the official name for the organisation that supports the Head of State of the Kingdom of Sweden, and the Royal Family.

The Head of State, His Majesty King Carl XVI Gustaf, is head of the Royal Court, and it is in turn divided into smaller segments.

  1. The Office of the Marshal of the Realm
  2. The Office of the Marshal of the Court
  3. H.M. The Queen's Household
  4. H.R.H The Crown Princess's Household
  5. H.R.H The Duchess of Halland's Household
  6. The Royal Collections with the Bernadotte Library
  7. Office of the Governor of the Royal Palaces
  8. The Royal Mews

The King is the head of all operations, and at his disposal he has The Military Staff of H.M. The King, The King's Council for the Court and Kungl. Maj:ts Orden. The Marshal of the Realm is then in turn the head of all operations, with all other departments within the Royal Court reporting directly to him. He is accountable to The King for the activities of the entire Royal Court organization.
