The 250-ton "Vesikko" submarine was built in Turku in 1933. It was originally commissioned by the German Navy but the Finnish Navy acquired it in 1936. Vesikko was used until the end of the Second World War, and whilst other submarines were sold to be scrapped, Vesikko was spared, thanks to the 1947 Treaty of Paris. Guided tours can be arranged by appointment. A ferry leaves for Suomenlinna from the Market Square.
