Che cosa c’è nei paraggi
I luoghi raccontati più vicini, con la distanza in linea d’aria da qui.
650 m
Vyborg Library
A pioneering masterpiece of 20th-century functionalist architecture by Alvar Aalto.
750 m
Vyborg Telephone Station
Ullberg's 1922 telephone exchange on Mira Street. The lost wing is part of this building's story.
800 m
House with Pelicans
Decorative pelicans on the façade turn an otherwise sober historic building into one of Vyborg's popular architectural puzzles.
850 m
Former Viipuri Music Institute and Otso House
Behind this commercial facade, Boris Sirpo's music school grew into one of Finland's most important conservatories and made 1920s–1930s Viipuri a serious rival to Helsinki's concert life. During the Winter War, caretaker Hulda Puustell helped pack more than 10,000 scores into crates; the rescued library eventually followed the evacuated institute to Lahti.
900 m
Battery Hill Water Tower
Built in 1930 as the largest water tower in Finland, this severe brick landmark represented the technical ambition of modern Finnish Viipuri. It survived the battles of 1939, 1941 and 1944 while many neighborhoods below were destroyed, yet the reconstructed Soviet water system made it obsolete almost immediately after the war.
