The Royal Stables (Dutch: Koninklijke Stallen) is a collection of equestrian stables of the Dutch royal family, the House of Orange-Nassau. It is a Rijksmonumental building that is part of the royal palace grounds located in the city center of The Hague in the Netherlands. The Noordeinde Palace and the Palace Gardens are also part of this same palace complex.[1] The Noordeinde Palace and its grounds are the official workplace of the Dutch King Willem-Alexander.[3]

The organising organ working at the Royal Stables, the Crown Equerry (Dutch: Koninklijk Staldepartement), is responsible for the care of the transportation modes of the Dutch Royal House and Officers of the Royal Household.[4][5]
