Marine town Rauma

The bygone times of the marine town rouse nostalgic memories, seafaring romance and longing for the good old times. The sailing ships that once ploughed the seven seas still awaken emotions. Rauma creates and revives its marine past and image as a marine town actively. 

People in Rauma keep their significant mementoes of the marine past in their homes, in their activities and in shared events. Local history and traditions are transmitted onward; otherwise they will soon vanish. As part of the community, Rauma Maritime Museum has been preserving history for more than 20 years, influencing our image of the marine town. This exhibition tells you about its phenomena and their backgrounds.
