Review:
The Mannerheim Museum is located in the Kaivopuisto district of Helsinki in an historic building dating back to 1874 (formerly known as the Boman Villa), and will particularly appeal to lovers of military history. The museum showcases the life of Gustav Mannerheim, who was a cavalry officer in Russia and a wartime Finnish commander, and the permanent exhibits include a military medal collection and photographic records of his perilous 1906–1908 journey across Asia on horseback. Aside from the exhibition rooms on the lower floor, the remainder of the home has been carefully preserved just as it was in the early 1940s. You can visit the museum on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays and guided tours are available.
