Haga Palace in Solna was designed by Carl Christoffer Gjörwell for King Gustav IV Adolf, as a modern Italian-style villa for his children. The infobox and text agree on 1802 to 1805. Work began in May 1802, the exterior was largely done by 1803 and the interiors continued until late 1805.

The infobox lists Neoclassicism. The materials include Finnish marble columns reused from the German Church in Karlskrona, oak flooring from Fredrikshov Palace and stone originally acquired for a palace at Brunnsviken. It has three floors and 41 rooms.

The palace served as a royal residence and summer home through the 19th and 20th centuries. The government held use rights from 1966 for foreign guests. Crown Princess Victoria and Prince Daniel moved in during November 2010, after work in 2009 to 2010. The Swedish State owns it, with the National Property Board as landlord. The article gives no visiting rules.
