List of princesses of Sweden

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is a list of Swedish princesses from the accession of Gustav I, from the House of Vasa, and continues through the Houses of Palatinate-Zweibrücken, Holstein-Gottorp; and the Bernadotte, the adoptive heirs of the House of Holstein-Gottorp, who were adoptive heir of the Palatinate-Zweibrückens. An individual holding the title of princess would usually also be styled "Her Royal Highness."
