About Porvoo

Porvoo is the most perfectly preserved medieval town in Finland and the second-oldest town in the country — a town of 51,000 inhabitants 42km east of Helsinki Airport, whose extraordinary Vanha Porvoo — Old Porvoo — (the most completely intact medieval and 18th-century wooden town in Finland, its famous red-painted riverside warehouses on the Porvoo River the most photographed urban scene in the country, the row of red ochre 18th-century merchant storehouses reflected in the Porvoo River the single most recognisable image of Finnish historic townscape, reproduced on more Finnish postcards and travel photographs than any other urban scene in the country), the Porvoo Cathedral (the Tuomiokirkko, the most important medieval church in Finland, originally built in the 14th century, its Gothic stone walls and white-washed interior the finest surviving example of medieval Finnish ecclesiastical architecture, the site of the Diet of Porvoo of 1809 — the most consequential political assembly in Finnish history, at which Tsar Alexander I of Russia granted Finland autonomous status as the Grand Duchy of Finland, the act that created Finnish national identity as a distinct political entity) and the extraordinarily rich artisan and food culture (Porvoo's old town has the highest concentration of Finnish artisan boutiques, chocolate shops and design studios of any Finnish provincial town) give it a heritage of extraordinary quality and national significance.

Porvoo's most celebrated cultural institution is the Runeberg House (the home of Johan Ludvig Runeberg, 1804-1877, the national poet of Finland, the author of Maamme — 'Our Land' — the Finnish national anthem, the most venerated figure in Finnish literary history, whose house in Porvoo is the most important literary heritage site in Finland). The Porvoo Museum (the most important historical collection in the Porvoo region, its exhibits documenting the extraordinary role of the town in Finnish national history from the medieval period to the Autonomy era), the Holmia chocolate factory (the most famous Finnish artisan chocolate producer, with its shop in the Porvoo old town the most visited chocolate destination in Finland) and the Porvoo River valley (the most photographed river landscape in Finland, the old town rising above the red warehouses and the medieval bridge) give the town a cultural and gastronomic identity of great depth.
