Communications Centre Lokki

Communications Centre Lokki is a war-related museum in Mikkeli that shows how the Finnish military sent messages and coordinated operations. The collection includes phones, radios, switchboards, and other equipment used to connect distant locations.

The site served as the main communication hub for Finnish forces from 1941 to 1944 during wartime. After the conflict ended, the facility was preserved and eventually opened as a museum to record this important chapter.

The museum displays equipment and devices that Finnish forces used during wartime to communicate with each other and relay orders. These items show how soldiers stayed connected across different locations.

The site is located inside a hill with underground rooms that stay cool year-round during visits. Guided tours are offered in multiple languages and help explain the technical details of the equipment.

The museum operates from a real cave and tunnel system carved deep into the hillside during wartime. Walking through the original layout and technical setups gives visitors a direct sense of how operators worked in this confined space.
