In exile Gustav Adolf used several titles, including Count Gottorp and Duke of Holstein-Eutin, and finally settled at St. Gallen in Switzerland where he lived in a small hotel in great loneliness and indigence, under the name of Colonel Gustafsson. It was there that he suffered a stroke and died on 7 February 1837. He was buried in Moravia. At the suggestion of King Oscar II and Norway, his body was finally brought to Sweden and interred in Riddarholm Church. Gustav Adolf was the great-grandfather of Victoria of Baden, Oscar's new daughter-in-law at the time and eventually Queen of Sweden as consort to Oscar's son Gustaf V.
