Kuusisto Castle, Medieval episcopal ruins in Kaarina, Finland.
The stone walls of Kuusisto Castle stand on an island near Turku, with foundations dating from the early fourteenth century.
The castle served as the residence of Catholic bishops until 1528 when King Gustav I of Sweden commanded its demolition during the Protestant Reformation.
Archaeological excavations at Kuusisto Castle since 1891 reveal the architectural elements and daily life patterns of medieval Finnish clergy.
The castle grounds remain accessible throughout the year, with paths leading visitors through the remaining structures and foundations.
The ruins house multiple species of bats that have established colonies within the ancient stone walls of this former episcopal stronghold.
