The south side of the Palace, facing the winter sun and an open square, is the most pleasant. In addition to the Royal Apartments, the Palace houses a Royal Treasury containing the Crown Jewels and the Royal Armory, with a vast array of medieval weapons, clothing, and even the stuffed horse of King Gustavus Adolphus, the "Lion of the North."
