Olavinlinna

Olavinlinna (svensk Olofsborg, norsk St. Olavs slott) er ein mellomalderfestning ved Nyslott (Savonlinna) i Finland. Det ligg på ei lita øy i Kyrönsalmi-sundet mellom innsjøane Haukivesi og Pihlajavesi, og er omgjeve av strie straumar.

Festningen blei bygd på 1400-talet. Han er den nordlegaste mellomalderfestningen av stein som framleis står.

Olavinlinna blei restaurert på 1970-talet i eit prosjekt som var ferdig i 1975. St. Olavs slott er kjend for sin årlege internasjonale operafestival om sommaren.

I recommend buying the castle tour (9€) because that is the only way to get to the tower. In one of the towers is a medieval WC and it is very cool. In the autumn season the last tour starts at 15:00.

Castle itself is not so spectacular, compared to e.g. Turku castle. But this one is often used for operas, so definitely worth experiencing that.

Get to the castle! If you enjoy any kind of castle, this is the place to visit. During the Opera festivals the courtyard isn’t anything to see, but otherwise a magnificent place.

Экскурсия на русском языке - просто чудо! Количество экскурсантов не имеет значения и это обрадовало! Очень интересно рассказывают, не хотелось уходить! И город, и крепость рекомендую к посещению!

Берите экскурсию по замку! Проход по башням того стоит. Познавательно, много. Крепость в отличном состоянии.
