The Bunker Museum Irma

 

 

The restored wartime bunker called "Irma" is located in Harparskog approximately 5 kilometres from the Hanko Front Museum (address Mannerheimintie 56, 10680 Raasepori) and can be visited on summer weekends and by appointment. Most of the items in the bunker are original objects. There are Finnish Army blue and grey blankets, a wood-fired stove and on the shelves are items of tableware, equipment and effects as well as a functioning hand-worked air pump. The bunker is equipped with a 45 mm anti-tank gun and a machine gun, which are in original condition. Irma has an authentic atmosphere and it gives a good idea of life at the front during the war.

Harparskog Line

The Irma Bunker is located on the former heavily fortified line of defence, the Harparskog Line, that passed through Harparskog as part of the Finnish system of defence against the Soviet naval base on Hanko Peninsula. Various tank obstacles of large stone blocks and boulders were installed at the front line. Part of an almost four-kilometre long series of stone obstacles can be seen next to the Irma bunker.
