Lonely Planet review for Kastelholms Slott
One of Åland’s premier sights, Kastelholms Slott is a breathtaking castle picturesquely set alongside a little inlet. Construction began in the 14th century but several extensions have been made since, most notably by Gustav Wasa before he became king of Sweden. The keep towers are 15m high in parts with walls 3m thick and you can see how this castle would once have ruled over all of Åland.
