Mikkeli Old barracks, Military barracks in Mikkeli, Finland

The red brick military facility contains multiple buildings arranged in a symmetrical pattern, reflecting traditional Finnish military architecture from the 1800s.

Built in the late 19th century, these barracks served as a crucial military installation during Finland's development and housed troops until the 1970s.

The barracks preserve military traditions through regular gatherings of veterans who share their experiences and maintain connections with their service history.

Visitors can explore the grounds and examine over 5,000 archived photographs documenting the daily activities of soldiers who lived in these barracks.
