Perché vale la deviazione

This small burgher house sits directly on a granite outcrop where two medieval streets meet. Tradition associates it with a prosperous barber, giving it the nickname “Barber’s House”; although heavily altered after wars and sieges, it remains a rare fragment of domestic Swedish-era Vyborg.

This small burgher house, known as the 'Barber's House,' sits on a granite outcrop where two medieval streets meet. Despite alterations, it remains a unique piece of Vyborg's architectural history.

Burgher's Estate
This surviving merchant compound preserves the irregular orientation of Vyborg before the orderly street plan imposed in the seventeenth century. Its stone residence and former stable evoke the prosperous but heavily defended civilian town that grew in the shadow of the castle and its recurring wars.

Wahl House
This merchant compound housed the offices of Paul Wahl and Company, one of nineteenth-century Vyborg’s important trading firms.

Hackman and Co House in Vyborg

Clock Tower
The tower began as the bell tower of Vyborg's cathedral, rising within the fortified town whose churches and houses stood behind the wall attacked in 1495. It survived the transfer of Vyborg from Sweden to Russia after the 1710 siege, later becoming both a clock tower and a fire lookout while the adjoining cathedral fell into ruin.
