Underwater archaeology museum in Vyborg

I decided to walk around Vyborg Island.. I entered the Vyborg Castle courtyard through the white Commandant’s House, it was the main entrance of the Castle and it was the first thing that I saw there. If I am not mistaken, it was built at the beginning of the 17th century.

1. During my visit, the Underwater Archaeology Museum was located there. The signs with arrows on the shabby building said “ticket office”.

What else can you see near the Staraya Ladoga fortress?
