HELSINKI CITY CENTER TOUR & SUOMENLINNA ISLAND TOUR (UNESCO)

Suomenlinna is a major monument of military architecture. The construction of the sea fortress on the islands just off Helsinki in the middle of the 18th century was the most extensive building project during Swedish rule. When it was complete, its military shipyard was one of the biggest dry docks in the world and centres of know-how at that time. At the end of Swedish rule the fortress was being compared with the maritime fortifications at Gibraltar. In 1991, Suomenlinna was included on the UNESCO World Heritage List as a unique monument of military architecture. In 1998 Suomenlinna celebrated its 250th anniversary. Today, the islands are home to 800 residents and provide 400 year-round jobs
