  • 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.

At least since the 1500s, Kotkansaari has been known as meadow and pasture lands of Kymi Manor, and it has been used for slash-burning and acquisition of timber. The first inhabitant of the croft of Kotka, located at the southern end of the island, was men- tioned by name at the end of the 17th century. Two big naval battles were fought between Russia and Sweden in Ruot- sinsalmi, in 1789 and 1790. The name Ruotsinsalmi derives from the waterway in front of the city of Kotka. The waterway was located between the islands north of the Kuutsalo island and it was called Ruotsinsalmi.
