Suomalaisen ajan alussa 1920-luvulla se muutettiin luterilaiseksi kirkoksi. Kirkon tornissa toimii yhä lento- ja laivaliikennettä palveleva majakka. Suuri linnanpiha merilinnoitus Augustin Ehrensvärdin suunnittelema Suuri linnan- piha valmistui 1760-luvulla linnoituksen pääaukioksi. Se Suomenlinna vaurioitui pahoin Krimin sodan pommituksessa vuonna 1855. Aukiolla sijaitsee Ehrens- värdin hautamonumentti. kuivatelakka Suomenlinnan telakka on yksi maailman vanhimpia edelleen käytössä olevia allas- telakoita. Laiva-arkkitehti F. H. af Chapmanin johdolla siellä rakennettiin 1760-luvulla saaristolaivaston aluksia. Nykyään telakalla kunnos- tetaan perinnelaivoja. kuStaanmiekka Kustaanmiekalla voi nähdä sekä alkuperäisen bastionilinnoituksen että venäläisten 1800-luvun loppupuolella rakentaman meripuolustuslinjan hiekka- valleineen ja tykkeineen. kuninkaanportti Monumentaalinen Kuninkaanportti on Suomen- linnan tunnusmerkki. Se rakennettiin linnoituksen seremoniaportiksi vuosina 1753–54. Portti on rakennettu paikalle, jossa linnoituksen perustajaa Ruotsin kuningas Adolf Fredrikiä kuljettanut alus ankkuroitiin hänen käydessään tutustumassa rakennustöihin vuonna 1752.
