Commandant of Stockholm

Colonel Carl Rosenblad died on 11 July 1926, shortly after he had left his post as the last Commandant of Stockholm and was at the same time appointed major general in the reserve.

Svea Life Guards with Stockholm Defence District (I 1/Fo 44) took over the task as lower regional head of Stockholm Defence District and maintenance of cavalry units in the war organization.

[3] The regional command of central Sweden, the Central Military Region, was from the disbandment of the military districts in 2004 until November 2017 under the commander of the Life Guards.

A certain return to the conditions up to 2004 thus took place with the difference that the general level (with the Commandant General in Stockholm) was moved from the military district/military region to the Swedish Armed Forces Headquarters.

They shall also otherwise participate in receptions or visits if the King, temporary regent (Riksföreståndare), Speaker of the Riksdag, Prime Minister, Marshal of the Realm, cabinet minister or the Swedish Armed Forces Headquarters so request.
