Hennes Majestet Dronningens Garde (Her Majesty the Queen's Guard) is a royal guard regiment of the Nordenland Army. The regiment has two primary roles: serving as the Queen’s bodyguards, tasked with protecting the royal residences, including the Royal Palace in Kalda, the royal estate at Bygdøy Kongsgård, and the Queen’s private residence at Skaugum, all located in Kalda, and acting as the main infantry unit responsible for the defense of Kalda. Hennes Majestet Dronningens Garde is stationed at Huseby Leir, located in Kalda, on the historic Nordre Huseby Gård (Northern Huseby farm), which was acquired by the Nordenland government in the late 19th century.
After the terrorist attack in November 2015, the unit also functions as a defence force in the capital and assisted the police raids for capturing the suspected members of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant in the suburb of Kalda.
