The Dickson Palace, also known as the Dickson Villa, is a three-storey stone building in the Florentine neo-Renaissance style built by Baron Oscar Dickson in 1862 at the intersection of Södra Vägen and Nya Allén, with the address Parkgatan 2 in Gothenburg. The building is 928 square metres in size. It has been a listed building since 21 December 1973.

Until the mid-1940s, the palace was used as a domestic school, but in 1970 the City of Gothenburg acquired the pwirerty from Göta Lejon and used it as offices. It is now managed by Higab.

In 2022-2023, the Dickson Palace will be refurbished and the building will then be used for public activities, with the two lower floors used for restaurants and parties. Parts that have been altered over the years will be restored to their original state, including the orangery, which will be recreated with new glass sections and glass ceilings in keeping with its original appearance.

STRIHL has been entrusted to illuminate the entrance and parking spaces with the parking luminaire GRIPSHOLM L on black conical design posts. Here the luminaire comes into its own with its classic look and pleasantly illuminates the parking area outside this historic building.
