Mikkeli – The Headquarters City of Manors
The Mikkeli region is home to an extraordinary number of historic estates. For centuries, the region has served as a borderland and a base for military officers. During World War II, many of the manors were repurposed by the armed forces, providing accommodation, supply points, and command centres. Visiting Tertti and Kekkola manors, as well as Kenkävero Vicarage, offers a glimpse into the past, while letting you soak in the unique atmosphere of manor life.
