This postcard of the Olavinlinna (St. Olaf's Castle) is from Ninpis of Finland.
Olavinlinna (literally St. Olaf's Castle) is a three-tower castle located in Savonlinna in Eastern Finland. The fortress was founded by Erik Axelsson Tott in 1475 under the name Sankt Olofsborg. It is the northernmost medieval stone fortress still standing.
Currently, the castle hosts several small exhibitions, including the Castle Museum which displays artifacts found in the castle or related to it, and the Orthodox Museum which displays icons and other religious artifacts both from Finland and Russia. The castle forms a spectacular stage for the Savonlinna Opera Festival, held annually in the summer since 1912.
