From middle ages the castle has been a popular destination for many pilgrims and sinners. At present there is Medieval Theme Park witch is open to the public in the summertime. Park consists Pilgrim House, little chapel and the Piiri Tavern. For hikers there are two options. Short hiking trail (3km) takes you into manor park. Long hiking trail (15km) leads you along Piusa River shores. Both starts and ends near Castle.

It was under construction when we were there. Not much to see, but cool history

Interesting ruined castle with a nice museum. The museum has some artifacts found on the grounds. The castle itself has been through multiple captures. Worth a visit if in the area.

Very exotic and wild place, the river that surrounds almost the whole castle (ruins) the remains of the ancient walls, the slopes - it all somehow paints a picture of how life could have been several hundred years ago.
