Medieval House on Krepostnaya Street, 13a, in Vyborg
Medieval House on Krepostnaya Street, 13a, in Vyborg, Gothic medieval residential building in Vyborg, Russia
The two-story tower-type house features thick granite boulder walls, a basement, and stands back from Krepostnaya Street at number 13a.
Built during the 16th century, this residential structure served as both a home and a secure refuge during periods of conflict in medieval Vyborg.
The building represents one of four small private fortresses from the 14th-17th centuries that showcase medieval burgher architecture in Vyborg.
Following renovations in the 1960s, the interior now contains two apartments with raised ceilings and modern central heating systems.
The structure housed the first printing press in Vyborg during the 17th century while maintaining its residential function throughout the centuries.
