'''Solna''' ({{langx|sv|Solna kommun}} or {{lang|sv|Solna [[stad (Sweden)|stad]]}}, {{IPA|sv|ˈsôːlna|IPA}}), also known as '''Solna Municipality''', is a [[municipalities of Sweden|municipality]] in central [[Stockholm County]], [[Sweden]], located just north of [[Stockholm City Centre]]. Its seat is located in the town of Solna, which is a part of the [[Stockholm urban area]]. Solna is one of the wealthiest municipalities in Sweden.

The municipality is part of [[Metropolitan Stockholm]]. None of the area is considered rural, which is unusual for Swedish municipalities, which normally are of mixed rural/urban character. Solna is the third-smallest municipality in Sweden in terms of area, after nearby [[Sundbyberg Municipality|Sundbyberg]], as well as [[Burlöv Municipality|Burlöv]], [[Scania County]].

Solna borders [[Stockholm Municipality]] to the south, southeast, and northwest; [[Sundbyberg Municipality]] to the west; [[Sollentuna Municipality]] to the north; and [[Danderyd Municipality]] to the northeast. The boundary with Danderyd Municipality is delineated by the [[Stocksundet]] strait.

There are two [[parish]]es in Solna Municipality: Råsunda (population 29,677) and Solna (population 28,317).<ref>{{Cite web |title=Solna Municipality in italiano, traduzione {{!}} Glosbe |url=https://it.glosbe.com/en/it/Solna%20Municipality |access-date=2024-07-04 |website=it.glosbe.com |language=it}}</ref> Solna Parish once included parts of present-day City of Stockholm.<ref>{{Cite web |title=City Guide to Solna – Pomeroll |url=https://pomeroll.se/en/city-guides/stockholm/solna/ |access-date=2024-07-04 |language=en-US}}</ref>

Solna is divided into eight traditional parts with no administrative functions: [[Bergshamra, Solna|Bergshamra]], [[Hagaparken|Haga]], [[Hagalund]], [[Huvudsta]], [[Järva, Solna|Järva]], [[Råsunda (district)|Råsunda]], [[Skytteholm]] and [[Ulriksdal Palace|Ulriksdal]]. The largest districts are Råsunda, Hagalund and Huvudsta, with the [[Solna Centrum]] in between them.

With few exceptions, Solna's built-up areas have a [[suburb]]an character, but there are also several large parks and [[Strawberry Arena]], Sweden's new [[national football stadium]] adjacent to the Solna station of [[Stockholm commuter rail]].

The final matches of both the [[1958 FIFA World Cup|1958 FIFA (men's) World Cup]] and the [[1995 FIFA Women's World Cup]] were played at [[Råsunda Stadium]], the national football stadium from 1937 to 2012 (demolished in 2013).

Solna has attracted a wide range of businesses and authorities, making it a major place of work in [[Greater Stockholm]]. Among the most important employers are the medical university [[Karolinska Institutet]] and the [[Karolinska University Hospital]]. The [[European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control]] (ECDC) and the [[Stockholm International Peace Research Institute]] (SIPRI) are also located in Solna.
