Clarion Hotel Helsinki

Suomenlinna was turned over to civilian administration in 1973. To manage the administration and development of the fortress, the Governing Body of Suomenlinna was established under the Ministry of Education and Culture. In 1974, a development plan was drafted for Suomenlinna, also providing a basis for its development as a tourist attraction. The development is based on preserving the cultural heritage of Suomenlinna and developing the island as a residential area and historical monument in co-operation with the City of Helsinki. Suomenlinna was added to the UNESCO’s World Heritage List in 1991. The year 1998 marked the 250th anniversary of the fortress, and the Suomenlinna Centre was opened to celebrate the occasion. Today, the centre’s services are available to visitors all year round. The number of visitors to Suomenlinna has continued to grow, and with over 900,000 visitors every year, the sea fortress is one of Finland’s most popular tourist destinations. Suomenlinna attracts visitors from both Finland and abroad: it offers an ideal environment for exploring a historical world heritage site, or just spending a day relaxing. Many visitors come to the island during the summer, but the number of wintertime visitors is steadily growing. In the 21st century, Suomenlinna offers a convenient tourist destination, easily accessible around the year with a single ticket for the ferry operated by the Helsinki Region Transport Authority. Passes and entrance fees are no longer required.
