Travel guide Åland
Holiday in Åland
In the middle of the Baltic Sea lies Åland. A total of 20,000 islands and archipelagos are waiting to be discovered by nature lovers. They are connected to each other by bridges and Fähre. Here on Åland, life is shaped by the archipelago. Whether on foot, by bike or by kayak: each sport allows physical activity in front of unique – often completely deserted – natural scenery. By the way: Swedish is spoken on Åland!
TOP excursion destinations in Åland
The capital of Åland is the pretty harbour town of Mariehamn. Beautiful to look at are the small wooden houses, villas, restaurants and cafés. A leisurely walk leads to the two harbours with large cruise ships and maritime museum, where the four-master “Pommern” is waiting to be visited.
The island Kobba Klintar is a very popular photo motif. Because the little pilot house on the island is uniquely beautiful. With the Fähre it goes from Mariehamn on the island, in the summer “sounds” at 13.00 o’clock the deafening noise of the fog horn. The former pilot house from 1862 now houses a café. A perfect place to gaze into the distance over a cup of coffee….
Bomarsund is the largest fortress in Åland. Hard to believe it was built after a war between Russia and Sweden. The year 1809 brought peace, but forced Sweden to give up Åland. At times, more than 2,000 members of the Russian military lived here. Finland’s independence in 1917 ended the Russian presence on the islands. Today only ruins bear witness to this part of history.
For centuries, one of the most important shipping routes from east to west passed through Åland. Reason enough to build a castle here. With Kastelholm Castle, the Swedish kings once created a residence worthy of their status with a curtain wall, residential building and tower. From May to September you can visit the castle, the Vita Björn prison museum and the Jan Karlsgården open-air museum.
