    Langinkoski Imperial Fishing Lodge Museum image
    Visited Langinkoski with my husband and young son. This place is impressive, from the little bridges to the impressive lodge, there is something for everyone to enjoy. The rapids are great to watch. I took a walk through the woods whilst my husband was taking photographs, very quiet and peaceful. Great place to visit and take in the different scenery, looking forward to going back. See more..

    Experience the Virolahti Bunker Museum which exhibits the construction of the great Salpalinja defense line against Russia during the WW2 in the 1940’s. The museum, which was established in 1980, is also an authentic part of a defense station from the WW2! The museum's exhibition area includes an indoor exhibition, a short film about the construction of the Salpalinja defense line (duration 15 min, language versions available in English, Swedish, German, and Russian) and the fortification area located in the outdoor museum area: 3 illuminated reinforced concrete bunkers, a ball dugout, a wooden dugout, and a collection of different cannons. Cafe serves guests during the museum’s opening hours. This almost 1200 km long defense line starts from the Virolahti region, located on the coast of the Gulf of Finland, and continues all the way to the Arctic Ocean! Information about the regular and exceptional opening hours is available on website. Open for groups year-round upon request. See more..

    Kauppiaantalomuseo image
    Interesting museum. A furnished house and work areas. Nice to get a slice of life view of Hamina. It was much more interesting than I expected. There were a few signs in English for the standard house but there were a lot of signs in English for the special exhibit on animal treatment that were scattered throughout the house and work areas See more..

    History Museums
    Viihtyisä pihapiiri jossa vanhoja rakennuksia. Vanha koulurakennus on auki pääsääntöisesti vain kesäviikonloppuisin, mutta sisältö kertoo kattavasti paikalishistoriasta keskiajalta lähtien. Ilmainen. Kauniilla säällä eväät mukaan ja retkelle. Paikalla järjestetään erillaisia tapahtumia. See more..

    Puolakan Talomuseo image
    Puolakka House Museum is situated in Mäkikylä, Kouvola, about 4 kilometers from the city center. You see the main building and storehouses in the museum area. Oldest buildings are from the 18th century. The house was for residential use until 1957. The first museum was opened in 1962. Nowadays Puolakka House Museum is an interesting combination of local history and art. The museum is quite small but they have good art exhibitions. Besides, there isn't any admission fee there. The museum is open every day and you see sheep and chickens in the yard. So this tiny museum is very interesting for the whole family, I think. See more..
