    The Jan Karlsgarden Friluftsmuseum next to the Kastelholm Slott is an open air museum giving a good insight into the rural past of the Alands. There are several buildings from the 18th and 19th century to see with sometimes people in traditional costume performing time-honoured crafts. I was especially fascinated watching two ladies at the 'Rodfärgskokning', stirring a long stake in a big pot with boiling red dye. Several of the buildings and barns of this open air museum are painted in that copper-based falun red, so typical of the Swedish and Finnish countryside. The 'Wärdshus' here functions as a self service restaurant, where we had coffee and a quite good Aland's Pannkaka with Sviskonkräm (a prunes compote). What is not missing at this museum is a maypole. From here we went to visit the separate Prison Museum by the entrance. See more..
