Papulsky Park

Papulsky Park is situated on Papula Hill in Vyborg. It was laid out in 1886 according to the design of Stockholm architect Wilhelm Rydberg using funds from banker Wilhelm Bryggman. In 1892, a granite water tower with an observation deck was built on the hill. There are also graves of Red Army soldiers and civilians relocated after the Civil War. The area around Papula has historically been linked to Vyborg since the 16th century.
