Svea Court of Appeal (Swedish: Svea hovrätt, lit. 'Svea Royal Court'), located in Stockholm, is one of six appellate courts in the Swedish legal system, as well as the oldest Swedish court currently in use (the Supreme Court being constituted only in 1789, over 150 years later). It is located in the Wrangel Palace, on Riddarholmen islet in Gamla Stan, the old town of Stockholm.
