On Tuesday, July 14, Crown Princess Victoria celebrates her 49th birthday. The Swedish Palace congratulates the eldest daughter of King Charles XVI. Gustav and Queen Silvia in the morning with a post on Instagram.
A photograph of Victoria laughing in a blue jacket with gold buttons, which the palace says was taken during a visit to Tjarno in Bohuslän earlier this year, reads: “The Crown Princess’s birthday is an official flag day.” At the same time, this day will be marked with fireworks. At 12 noon, Swedish armed forces in Stockholm, Gothenburg, Karlskrona, Boden and Härnesand plan to fire a 21-gun salute in honor of the Crown Princess.
At the same time, the palace reminded that Victoria would traditionally spend her birthday on the island of Öland. During the day and evening there are several opportunities to see the Crown Princess with her family – with her husband Prince Daniel and their children Princess Estelle, 14, and Prince Oscar, 10, by her side.
