Stockholm - Riddarholm Church Riddarholmskyrka

In the south aisle of Stockholm's Riddarholm Church are the burial chapels of the Counts of Vasaborg and Field Marshal Johan Banér (d. 1641).

In the north aisle, to the left of the entrance, is the chapel of the Counts of Torstensson, and beyond this are the chapel of General Wachtmeister (d. 1652) and the two chapels of the Counts Lewenhaupt.

Adjoining the Gustavus Adolphus Chapel of Riddarholm Church is the burial chapel of the House of Bernadotte (Bernadotteska Gravkoret; 19th C.). In the center of this, to the rear, can be seen the massive red porphyry sarcophagus of Carl XIV Johan (d. 1844), with the sarcophagus of his wife Desideria (d. 1860) in front of it. Here too is the tomb of Gustaf V (1858-1950).

In the choir of Stockholm's Riddarhom Church, in front of the high altar (1679), are the tombs of King Magnus Ladulås (d. 1290) and King Karl Knutsson (d. 1470). To the right is the burial chapel of Gustavus Adolphus (killed in the battle of Lützen in 1632), with a green marble sarcophagus. Opposite it is the Caroline Chapel (Karolinska Gravkoret), with the tombs of Charles XII (d. 1718) and Frederick I (d. 1751).

The interior of Stockholm's Riddarholm Church is particularly fine. The walls are covered with the coats of arms of knights of the Order of the Seraphim, founded in 1336, and the floor is paved with gravestones.
