The Old Parliament House (Swedish: Gamla riksdagshuset) is the former seat of the Parliament of Sweden (Riksdag), located at Birger Jarls torg, on the Riddarholmen (island), in central Stockholm. It was used until January 1905, when the building on Helgeandsholmen was inaugurated.

The building nowadays houses the Administrative Court of Appeal in Stockholm.
