Lejonbacken (en sueco: "cuesta del león") es un sistema de rampas que conducen a la entrada norte del Palacio Real de Estocolmo (Suecia). Se construyeron en la década de 1780 y llevan el nombre de la pareja de leones de los Medici esculpidos y expuestos de forma destacada en las barandillas de piedra de las rampas.
