The Royal Palace in Oslo was designed by the Danish-born Hans Linstow for King Charles III John, called Charles John in the text. The infobox gives construction from 1825 to July 26, 1849. The text says work on the site began in 1824, the foundation stone was laid on October 1, 1825 and interiors were finished in the late 1840s. Construction paused from 1827 to 1833.

The article calls the style Neoclassicism and gives no materials. The infobox lists 173 rooms, and the Palace Park covers 22 hectares.

Oscar I was the first occupant after Charles John died in 1844. Haakon VII was the first monarch to use the palace permanently. A major renovation under Harald V was completed around 2001. It is the official residence of the Norwegian monarch, and the infobox names Haakon VIII as tenant, which the text does not. Public tours began in 2002. The article gives no hours or ticket details.
