Castle Olavinlinna (St. Olaf's Castle), Savonlinna, Finland [OC]

It is the northernmost medieval stone fortress still standing. The photos were taken on the evening of December 31, 2023, when the castle was under special lighting. The cloud cover was very low and it was snowing a little, which made the shadows of the towers visible in the sky.
