Vesikko, Submarine museum in Suomenlinna, Finland
The Vesikko submarine stretches 40.9 meters in length and 4.1 meters in width, featuring both Siemens diesel engines and electric motors for propulsion.
The submarine operated in the Gulf of Finland during World War II, conducting patrol missions and sinking a Soviet merchant vessel in July 1941.
The vessel represents Finland's naval heritage as the last remaining Finnish submarine, preserved after the Paris Peace Treaty prohibited Finland from maintaining submarine forces.
Located on the fortress island of Suomenlinna, the submarine museum opens daily from 11:00 to 18:00 and requires visitors to navigate narrow passages through multiple deck levels.
The submarine functions as a prototype vessel constructed by Crichton-Vulcan shipyard in Turku under commission from a Dutch engineering firm in 1930.
