Stiftsgården
Trondheim, Norway, Norway
Stiftsgården in Trondheim, Norway, is the official royal residence and one of Northern Europe's largest wooden buildings, constructed between 1774 and 1778 by wealthy widow Cecilie Christine von Schøller as her opulent private palace with over 100 rooms on the central Munkegaten near the main square. Blending Baroque architecture with Rococo details and Neoclassical lines, it features a main wing flanked by side wings built from notched logs clad in weatherboarding, plus lavish interiors redecorated for 19th-century royal coronations and a formal Rococo garden. Sold to the state in 1800, it has hosted royal events like Princess Märtha Louise's 2002 wedding celebrations and remains managed for the Norwegian monarch's use during Trøndelag visits.
