The Salpa Line Bunker, also known as Suomen Salpa, is a defensive line in Finland built between 1940 and 1944 to protect against a Soviet invasion. Stretching 1,200 kilometers from the Gulf of Finland to Petsamo, it boasts over 700 concrete installations, wire obstacles, anti-tank ditches, and more.

Here you can take a little tour around the bunkers and ask from Hotelli Salpalinjan Hovi to take you on a special tour to bigger bunkers!
