Turku
Pictures from the snowy Turku city in 2004. We visited Turku Cathedral, art museum (which unfortunately showed only small part of its collection due to the construction work in the main museum building - the work is supposed to last until the summer of 2005) and Turku Castle. Turku Castle was built already in the 1280s, during the centuries it was rebuilt and largened as well as partly destroyed during the wars. While during the II World War got quite badly destroyed. By now it was rebuilt in the way it looked in 18th century, while inside you can see rooms from earlier and later periods.
