Olavinlinna

For the whole family For couples For those hungry for culture

Built in 1475, Olavinlinna is a powerful testament to the colorful history of the border regions. This stone castle, built on an island, has served over the centuries as both a bone of contention between East and West and a magnificent venue for celebrations. Today, it is a unique cultural destination where you can wander through narrow, dimly lit corridors, peek out of the cannon towers' embrasures, and sense the authentic atmosphere of times gone by.

The castle's own exhibitions delve into the fascinating phases of the building and life within its walls. We warmly recommend participating in a guided tour, as the stories told by expert guides truly bring the thick stone walls to life. Olavinlinna is a historical jewel that will certainly leave an unforgettable impression!
