🎧  Listen to Introduction

Rauma, located on the Gulf of Bothnia, is one of Finland's oldest ports. Rauma was built around a Franciscan monastery, where the mid-15th-century Church of the Holy Cross still stands today, an outstanding example of a Nordic timber-framed ancient town. Although it was destroyed by fire in the late 17th century, it still retains its ancient vernacular architectural heritage.
