Savonlinna, Finland
This close-up of the towers reveals something special about the castle- the toilets.  The protrusions on the towers contain the toilets.  I went up in the tower on the right, and got to inspect one up close in a room where the virgins were locked up for their protection at night.  The seat is just a hole, and everything drops right onto the rocks below.  Thankfully, they've installed more modern facilities downstairs.
