The Centre of the Town
The town of Hamina was planned in a circular design, with the Town Hall having pride of place at the centre - a wide road circling around it and all streets then leading off it. Driving up one of the 'spokes' of this design, one cannot miss the town hall. More formal in design than many of the low wooden buildings which surround it, the town hall stands out, particularly when lit up at night and is a fitting centrepiece for what is really a small town. There is a cafe in one side (we didn't visit) which our daughter, who is living in Hamina, tells us is great for sitting outside and watching the world go by. Other than that, it really is the symbol of the layout of the town. A good photo opportunity and accessible from anywhere in Hamina.

Absolutely beatiful!
This building is worth of seeing. Town hall shares city to sections which forms the circle town plan. You can see how the streets are seddeled to this unic town. Building was lighted up As a super blue 6.12.2017 when Finland had 100 year anniversity.

Pittoresque building in the middle of the town
This place is worth of stopping. Try to get selfie here with Town hall, and maybe fit one of the nearby churches into same picture. Good starting point to your walk around the city. Two cafés nearby - one under the tower the other on the opposite side of the street.
