The Church of Hanko
The Church is situated on Vartiovuori which means guard hill. It is relatively new since the original church built in the late 1800's was badly damaged during the Continuation War (World War II). Also the bricks were degraded by the salty coastal climate. The church was renovated in 1953 and an annex built in 1971. Actually, the only thing that is old about this church is its location. By the way, it's Lutheran.
