Young Royals season 3 filming locations explored

Young Royals is mostly focused on events occurring within the fictional boarding school Hillerska, which is located in Sweden (as per the series). Season 3 is majorly filmed at Kaggeholms Slott, a place located in Ekerö, outside of Stockholm, the capital of Sweden.

Kaggeholms Slott (Kaggeholms Castle) is a historic manor-style structure. It serves as a stand-in for the esteemed mixed boarding school Hillerska, which Prince Wilhelm (Edvin Ryding) is compelled to attend. Vital scenes from the series have been filmed on the picturesque school grounds, where students hang out in their leisure time, and host parties. The location also showcases a beautiful waterbody where Wilhelm practices rowing with other members of the rowing club.

The series features a royal palace where Wilhelm and his family reside. To bring an authentic setup, the show is shot at an actual castle called the Stora Sundby Castle, in Eskilstuna, Sweden.

Designed by architect Peter Frederick Robinson, the castle has four large towers which signify the major seasons. Along with that, there are twelve smaller towers that are meant to represent the months of a year. Interestingly, the castle features 52 rooms in tandem with the total number of weeks in a year and has 365 windows, symbolizing each day of the year.

In Young Royals, a house is depicted where non-residents like Sara (played by Frida Argento) and Simon (Omar Rudberg) live. They live with their mother, and the residence shown is located in Stenhamra, outside Stockholm.

There are several football scenes in the series that have been filmed at the sporting complex called Träkvistavallen, located in Ekerö, Sweden.
