Schering Rosenhanes palats, located at Birger Jarls torg 10 on Riddarholmen in Stockholm, is a historic palace built between 1652 and 1656 for the Governor Schering Rosenhane, designed by Nicodemus Tessin the Elder. The palace served as the headquarters for the Swedish Freemasons from 1776 to 1876, during which time the wings were added, altering its façade. Today, it houses the Svea Court of Appeal. Visitors can admire the preserved beauty of the palace, particularly from the waterfront. Although the building is primarily in use for legal purposes, its historical significance and architecture make it a noteworthy site for history enthusiasts. Accessibility options are available, though visiting hours may vary.
