Old Rauma is the charming wooden center of Rauma, Finland, known for its unique architecture and well-preserved medieval town layout. This UNESCO World Heritage site boasts about 600 buildings, some dating back to the 18th century, with a mix of residential and ancillary structures lining narrow alleyways. Despite fires in the past, Old Rauma still retains its medieval charm, with highlights like the Church of the Holy Cross and historic houses turned museums adding to its appeal. It's a quaint slice of history where you can stroll through cobblestone streets and soak up the old-world atmosphere.
