Warum der Umweg sich lohnt
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.

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.

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.

Tower of St. Olav
The Tower of St. Olav is the remaining tower of Vyborg Castle, a symbol of Vyborg.
