Turku Castle Tours and Activities

Turku Castle is a more than 700 year old historical monument. It has stood guard over the river Aura estuary since the 1280’s.

During its history it has been a defensive bastion, a majestic court, an administrative centre, a prison, a storehouse and a barracks. Nowadays the castle is a must visit tourist attraction in Finland.

In the 1941 bombings the castle was left in ruins. After the end of the war restaurations began. Nowadays the periods of construction can be seen in labyrinthine passages, walled up doors and windows and in mysterious staircases. #culture
