Очень интересный этнографический музей под открытым небом: богатая история быта, очень интересные работники, которые многое рассказывают о быте Аландцев.Красивый замок с живописным видом со смотровой площадки. Замок платный, музей быта - бесплатный
We visited the Castle on Sunday, so there was no restaurant or evev a cafe nearby. The castle is repaired and there was a guided tour. Nearby there is a rural museum and an old jail (now museum). Worth visiting while in Åland.
На Аландах довольно скучновато, но спокойно, красивые пейзажи. Замок - одна из достопримечательностей, жаль, что осенью был закрыт для посещения..
Very well looked after, and extremely interesting. The information provided was helpful in keeping our attention focused. Especially interesting area where Eric XIV was imprisoned, and later died. Very much well worth a visit.
If you are looking for somewhere to look at an old castle and original traditional out buildings in the Aland Islands then this is well worth a visit. The display is all static but nevertheless interesting.The highlight is probably the associated restaurant "Jan Karlsgårdens Wärdshus". The chef Micke Björklund was named Chef of the Year in Sweden in 2000 and in Finland in 1997. The food is all prepared from scratch using local ingredients and is simple, plain but very very tasty.3 Stars for the Castle but 4 for the restaurant.
Ideal um Kindern in die Vergangenheit einzutauchen. dafür sollte man schon einige Stunden Aufenthalt einplanen.
This ancient castle is a great place to visit to learn about some of the history of the area. It has been well preserved, especially considering it is over 500 years old.
We visit only open air museum Jan Karlsgärden, but is really great.Free entry and free parking, also old post house is near.
Unfortunately Kastelholm was closed for midsummer, but we ended up to midsummer fest in Jan Karlsgard - outdoor museum next to Kastelholm. Lots of people and traditional treats and music and dancing around the majstång! Very nice experience. Outdoor museum has several old houses you can visit and see how life was many years ago. Tip for kids: Kastelholm castle has nice lambs around it, eating the grass. Wonderful to watch them! Beware the large snails around everywhere, so that you don't kill them by walking over..they seem to exist everywhere on the islands.
Kastelholm Castle was originally the hunting lodge of the Swedish crown. Take a look inside and see the dungeon where Erik XIV was poisoned by his brother Johan III.
