Riihisaari – Savonlinna Museum occupies a brick crown granary from 1852, designed by Ernst Bernhard Lohrmann, on a small island beside Olavinlinna. Its exhibitions cover the history and nature of South Savo and boat traffic on Lake Saimaa, and in summer visitors can go aboard the museum's steamships, built between 1871 and 1914, at its pier.

Olavinlinna is a stone castle on a rocky island in the Kyrönsalmi strait in Savonlinna, founded in 1475 by Erik Axelsson Tott to guard the eastern border of the Swedish realm. Its three-towered keep and curtain walls house exhibitions on the castle's history, and the courtyard is the stage of the Savonlinna Opera Festival every summer.
