Jan Karlsgården
Getting around: Next to Kastelholm Castle, about 25km northeast of Mariehamn.
Hours: Seasonal, roughly June-August, daytime hours.
Jan Karlsgarden is an open-air museum of traditional Aland farm buildings, sitting right beside Kastelholm Castle. Smaller and more modest than Seurasaari's equivalent near Helsinki, but its direct pairing with the castle makes it an easy add-on.
Suits visitors already at Kastelholm wanting a quick sense of rural Aland life.
