Description

Rauma (Finnish) or Raumo (Swedish) is a town in Satakunta. The wooden houses in the center of the old town are a UNESCO World Heritage site, as is the Bronze Age burial site Sammallahdenmaki about 20 km east of downtown.

It is a historic seafaring town but in the 20th century paper milling became its main industry. The nuclear power plant in nearby Olkiluoto area is a major regional employer.

Rauma has a lot of seafaring history. It also developed a reputation for high quality lace. These traditions are actively being marketed by the tourism industry, though in day-to-day life they are no longer mainstream.
