80 years since the evacuation of Porkkala

80 years have passed since the Tuesday in September 1944, when the Porkkala inhabitants were told that they had to evacuate! The Porkkala area comprised of almost all of Degerby, a fourth of Siuntio and slightly more than 60 perscent of Kirkkonummi, all of this would turn into a Soviet naval base, from which Helsinki and all of Finland would be conquered.

The evacuation happened and the Porkkala naval base was founded. But already in January 1956 the Soviet base was closed and the Porkkala inhabitants were allowed to move back. This after a hard fight with the Finnish armed forced and the suburb building powers, who wanted to claim the land.

Please visit the Degerby Igor museum in order to take a closer look at our recent history in Porkkala!

Our museum is open on Saturdays from 12-16 during September-November, and always by appointment!

Autum season starts at Igor in 2024
