Keihässalmi, Museum ship at Forum Marinum, Turku, Finland
The Keihässalmi minelayer vessel extends 56 meters in length, features two Wärtsilä diesel engines, and carries multiple anti-aircraft gun installations.
Built in Helsinki in 1957, this minelayer vessel served as the Finnish Navy's flagship and conducted the first post-war naval visits to Sweden and Soviet Union.
The vessel represents Finnish naval engineering expertise, serving as both an operational warship and a training platform for numerous naval personnel generations.
