Liinmaa Castle, Medieval hillfort in Eurajoki, Finland.

The castle stands at the bottom of Väkkäränlahti Bay, featuring two protective walls and water barriers that controlled Gulf of Bothnia trade routes.

Archaeological excavations conducted in the 1970s and 2004-2005 revealed that Liinmaa Castle operated during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries.

The castle bears different names across languages, known as Liinmaan linna in Finnish, Vreghdenborg in Swedish, reflecting regional linguistic diversity.

The site remains open throughout the year without entrance fees, accessible by following directional signs from the junction for 1.4 kilometers.

Under Finnish law, the castle site holds fixed relic status, prohibiting excavations, damage, or campfires within its protected archaeological boundaries.
