Let Lappeenranta enchant you

Lappeenranta, the climate capital of Finland! Where East meets West, there it shines as a modern tourist hotspot on the stunning shores of Lake Saimaa. And boy, does it deliver! Lappeenranta Fortress beckons with its museums, Orthodox church, and artisanal boutiques. And let’s not forget the Raatihuone, erected in 1829 and bombed to bits in 1940, only to rise again in all its restored glory.

And when you hit the market square or the harbor, don’t miss out on the local treats – vety and atomit! These meat pies, stuffed with ham and egg, have been tantalizing taste buds for over four decades.

And oh, the summer sandcastles! Since 2004, Lappeenranta’s harbor has been adorned with magnificent sandcastle sculptures, each year boasting a new theme. There’s always something fresh and fabulous to see here!
