Town hall in Porvoo

We went to old Porvoo by a bus. Each one could decide where in Porvoo we will go. I decided to go to old Porvoo because everybody doesn’t know what’s in there. There is one famous place that is now museum but it used to be a town hall. Town hall was built in 1762-64 to Porvoo ( now old Porvoo). It’s an important building along with the church.  Only two town halls in Finland that were built in 1700s are left and this is the one of the two. I think that is amazing that this one is still upright. Town hall was very important place in Porvoo until a new town hall was built. It became a museum already in 1896.
