Things to see and do Hamina

Hamina was born in the place of the old village. However, the victory of Russia in 1743 led to the annexation of the region. In turn, the Russians seek to defend their borders. Hamina is a stronghold of the first order. Sweden's final defeat in the 1808-1809 conflict led to Russia's annexation of the whole of Finland. Russia's independence in 1917 ushered in a new era for the town. The quality of preservation of the ramparts (4.5 km accessible on foot) deserves a walk.
