Vyborg is a city with more than 700 years of history on the shores of the Vyborg Bay, where Swedish, Finnish and Russian traditions intertwine. Its narrow streets of the medieval Old Town, the sea atmosphere of the port and the architectural diversity give the cityscape a special emotional depth. There is a lively dialogue of epochs: from stone fortresses to modernist buildings of the XX century, and each corner keeps its own legends and stories.
The hand-made sights of Vyborg are striking in their diversity: the ancient Vyborg Castle, founded by the Swedes in the XIII century, and the medieval towers - Clock and Round - set the silhouette of the city. In religious architecture, the Old Cathedral and the Transfiguration Cathedral are visible, and the Lutheran Cathedral of Saints Peter and Paul adds a historical flavor. The city market, the burgher’s estate, the Alvar Aalto library and the Yalkala Historical and Ethnographic Museum-Reserve demonstrate cultural and household heritage, and the port and embankments retain an important role in urban life.
The natural corners around Vyborg are no less picturesque: Monrepo Park with the rocky banks of the Vyborg Bay is a real open-air natural museum where you can walk for hours. In the vicinity there are lakes Big Simaginskoye and Long, forests and coastal landscapes, ideal for picnics, walks and photography. Coasts, islands and coastal groves create a feeling of a secluded corner of nature within walking distance from the historical center.
On our website you will find an interactive map where all the main attractions of Vyborg are marked clearly: brief descriptions, historical facts and practical information are available in one click. With the help of the map, you can lay the optimal route for the objects of interest, combine pedestrian and road sections and save the selected points for convenient travel planning.

Guides will tell little-known stories, show hidden courtyards and illustrate historical events with live details, making the trip richer and more interesting.
