50 m
Ravelin Gate
A traveller leaving eighteenth-century Vyborg had to pass the Friedrichshamn Gate, cross the ditch onto a detached ravelin and then go through this second stone gateway. A new highway cut through the fortifications in 1865, leaving the former military approach as a quiet pedestrian route where the old defensive choreography is still legible.
150 m
Friedrichshamn Gate
These gates once controlled the fortified road west toward Friedrichshamn, forcing travellers through successive walls, ditches and a ravelin. The surrounding trenches later acquired a darker history: after White forces captured Vyborg in April 1918, Russian civilians were among those executed near the gates.
150 m
Petrovskaya Embankment
In the sixteenth century, poorer townspeople began settling on this shore partly to escape the customs duties charged for trading inside walled Vyborg. Their improvised wooden suburb was later cleared for barracks, supply stores and powder magazines, turning a haven for duty avoidance into a tightly controlled military landscape.
350 m
Monument to Peter I in Vyborg
A bronze statue of Russian Emperor Peter I, known for its rich history of relocations.
400 m
Peter I Monogram Rock
A carved monogram and cross on this high rock traditionally mark the command position from which Peter I observed or directed the 1710 bombardment of Vyborg. The carving's personal authorship is legendary rather than proven, but the site became a focus of imperial memory and offers a direct view toward the conquered castle.
