Norwegian Prime Minister in Stockholm
1873 - 1905
Article | Last updated: 19/10/2012
Between 1814 and 1873 Norway’s Prime Minister was permanently based at the Norwegian Council of State Division in Stockholm, as this was where the King of Norway and Sweden resided. When the office of Governor-General in Christiania (Oslo) in 1873 was converted into an office of prime minister, the role as Norway's Prime Minister was transferred to this office. The Norwegian Prime Minister in Stockholm now became second in rank after the Prime Minister in Christiania.
The system with a Norwegian prime minister and a council of state division in Stockholm ceased to exist when the union between Sweden and Norway was dissolved in 1905.
