    Turku Museum of History Heidi Jokinen Studio 12 Supervisor: Per Fransson Program The program is divided into a two-floor-building. The entrances of the museum are on the 1st floor. The Exhibitions begin from the entrance floor with the Major International Exhibition space which is for changing exhibitions. The exhibition is in the 1930’s warehouse building, it is an open space lined with columns which makes it easy to be transformed for different kinds of exhibitions. The Main Exhibition space for the history of Turku and Finland is on two levels on the 2nd floor. The exhibition is entered through the 1st floor Major Exhibition with a staircase leading up to the 2nd floor. The space is open with just a couple of dividing walls and columns making it flexible for changes in exhibition. For instance, the Virtual Reality Experience rooms are set between the columns on the second floor for a different kind of museum experience – Turku Goes 1812 where the visitor can experience parts of the city as it was 15 years prior to the Great fire of Turku. The Museum also houses a Museum shop, a Restaurant with seating for 150 people, and an Auditorium with 180 seats on the 1st floor. Existing Buildings The existing buildings on site are used as part of the exhibition spaces as well as a part of the restaurant dining area, museum storage area and as rentable collaboration spaces for the museum and the local businesses. Landscape The site should engage the visitor in history directly upon arrival – a stone paved pathway lined with concrete information walls leads the visitor toward the entrance.

  • A Brief History of Six Ancient Finnish Castles
    1 (2) 8.1.2014 A brief history of six ancient Finnish castles The Ancient Castles stamp booklet presents the following six ancient Finnish castles, each of which has its own interesting history. Suomenlinna Construction of Viapori Castle was started in 1748 by A. Ehrensvärd. The fortress surrendered to the Russians in 1808, and when Finland became independent, it was named Suomenlinna. In the early years of independence, it served as prison camp and closed military zone. The area started to be developed for tourism in the late 1950s, and now Suomenlinna, which lies directly in front of Helsinki, has become a popular tourist destination and is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Further information: www.suomenlinna.fi/en Häme Castle Häme Castle was founded in the late 1200s and was converted into a residential castle in the 1700s. The castle served as a prison from 1837 to 1972. Restoration work began in 1953 and was completed in 1988. Today, the castle serves as a museum and hosts a variety of exhibitions and events. Further information: www.nba.fi/en/museums/hame_castle Raseborg Castle Raseborg Castle was built in the 1370s in Snappertuna. The castle, which had been used to defend Swedish trade interests, was abandoned in the 1550s and it fell into decay. Restoration work began in the late 1800s and continued until the end of the 1980s. The castle is now open to the public during the summer. Further information: www.raseborg.org/slott/eng/ Kastelholm Castle Kastelholm was originally built to defend the Åland Islands in the late 1300s.

  • Streets, Seals Or Seeds As Early Manifestations of Urban Life in Turku, Finland
    Streets, seals or seeds as early manifestations of urban life in Turku, Finland Liisa Seppänen In the 2000s, the studies concerning the early phases of urbanization in Finland have re-actualized after many decades. The studies have focused on Turku, which is the oldest town of the present-day Finland and has been a target for many excavations. The focus of this paper is in the beginnings of the urbanization of Turku with the questions when and why the town was founded. The questions are old and discussed in many studies since the early 20th century. In this article, these questions are reflected on the basis recent archaeo- logical findings and the circumstantial evidence from historical sources. I am presenting my interpretation about the course of events, which led to the establishment of Turku. The town was not founded on a virgin land, but it was preceded by human activities like farming and possibly gatherings of religious or commercial nature. The political circum- stances activated the planning of the town in the late 13th century, which were realized in the turn of the 13th and 14th century. It seems, that the urbanization process took several decades and probably it was not until the mid 14th century when Turku met all the bench- marks set for the medieval town. Tracing the earliest evidence red to a more appropriate place. The document is dated in Perugia on the The origins of Turku (fig. 1) have fas- 29th of January in 1229, but it does cinated Finnish historians and archa- not, however, reveal the location of eologists for more than a century.

  • Encapsulating Visions of Nationhood Finland (1911) As a Memory Box
    Encapsulating Visions of Nationhood Finland (1911) as a Memory Box HANNU SALMI At the turn of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries there was a growing interest in Finland to increase tourism by making the home country known among its own citizens and by arousing international interest in travelling to the shores of the Baltic Sea. In 1911, an international fair for tourism, Die Internationale Reise- und Fremden-Verkehr Austellung, was planned to be organised in Berlin, and the initiative was taken in Finland to produce a promotional film for the exhibition. This was exceptional in the sense that no previous film advertising an entire country is known to have been produced in the history of cinema.1 The urge to apply modern technology in building an international reputation, or at least in giving a sign of existence for the international community, was deeply rooted in the upheaval of national sentiments in Finland that was still a part of the Russian empire at the time. The policy of Russification was particularly oppressive during the years 1899–1905 and 1908–1917. Finns have traditionally called these periods sortokaudet (years of oppression) and interpreted them in terms of national threat; yet, they were in 1 On Finnish travel films, see SALMI, 2002, pp. 26-29, SEDERGREN/KIPPOLA, 2009, pp. 200-236. The credit of the first film to market an entire country has often been attributed to the long documentary Finlandia (1922), produced in the newly independent country. This credit may well be given to Finland which was made eleven years earlier despite the fact that Finland was still part of the Russian empire.

  • Our Nordic Adventure: a Cycling Holiday in Finland
    Our Nordic Adventure: A Cycling Holiday in Finland Our bike tour in Finland was a glorious adventure. We didn’t know what to expect really, but as each day unfolded—the Finnish landscape, culture, and beauty engaged us completely. Finland was a different “pick” for us. Friends lured us there with a gracious invitation, and we were thrilled to get a chance to explore this Nordic country. Bounded by Russia in the east and Sweden in the west—Finland incorporates both eastern and western cultures. For some historical context: Sweden ruled Finland for 600 years until 1808, when the Russians gained control of Finland after they fought the Swedes. They ruled for about 100 years after which Lenin granted Finland independence in 1917. FYI: Both Finnish and Swedish are official languages. A Swedish-speaking minority lives in the west and south of Finland. Finland is a land of lakes, forests, saunas, and berries, all of which we embraced wholeheartedly. With (boreal) forests covering 69% of the country and with 188,000 lakes, the Finns enjoy the wonderful nature that surrounds them, in summer certainly, but even during those long winter months, with miles of ski trails as well as ice fishing, and swimming! Saunas (pronounced sowna) are part of the lifestyle and are found in every home—new or old. We enjoyed many saunas, in private homes, B&Bs, and lakeside cottages. The ultimate sauna experience is ending it off with a refreshing dip in the lake. We did that too! Forest berry-picking is also a national pastime, and this year they had a “bumper” crop of wild raspberries, lingonberries, low bush blueberries, and bilberries.

  • Six Estate Landscapes Traces of Medieval Feudalisation in Finland?
    GEORG HAGGRÉN University of Helsinki Department of Philosophy, History, Culture and Art Studies, Archaeology Six Estate Landscapes Traces of Medieval Feudalisation in Finland? ABSTRACT: In Sweden, human geographers and medieval archaeologists have recently showed how the property boundaries around settlements and their holdings have become permanent already during the early Middle Ages. This is particularly true when speaking of large domains owned by the aristocracy. It was the time when villages and hamlets were established and the still existing base of the land ownership system was made. Most of these property boundaries are still visible today. This seems to be the case also in SW Finland, especially concerning the land owned by the medieval nobility. Combining the data from historical maps, archival sources, and archaeological record with ancient and still existing boundaries, it is possible to reconstruct a manorial landscape that was based on the of the medieval landownership. The half a dozen cases from different provinces (Askainen in Lemu, Viurila in Halikko, Prästkulla in Tenhola, Hertognäs in Helsinki, Jutikkala in Sääksmäki and Anola in Ulvila), which are discussed in this article, rep­ resent this group of approximately hundred large, medieval manorial estates, which were established in the early 15th century at the latest. KEY WORDS: Middle Ages, feudalisation, noble estate, manor, tenant farm. INTRODUCTION In the early 16th century, before the Reforma- tion, the nobility owned only 3.1% of the farms in Finland lies in the northern part of Europe, in a Finland, while 2.6% of the land was in the hands northern margin of the Western world, far from the of Church.
