A Cloud Castle Magazine: Helsinki City Museum

We visited in Helsinki City Museum and it is in Sofiankatu 4 near to Helsinki Catedral.

First we had an hour time to watch exhibition and after it we went to seminar where older people talked about 'hot dog kioskes'.

What I remember from the exhibition?

women used fun to show their feelings to a man. For example if a woman touched her left cheek with fun it meaned 'Go way! I am not intrested."
there were big coins and medals in the museum
there was also an old kitchen
pictures from old Linnanmäki
old stuff from civil war: red or white armband, guns
newspaper article from peace treaty between Finland and Soviet Union
there was also picture gallery and old cameras in vitrine

Handheld fun.


It was a very nice to see which kind of clothes people used in the 17th century.

What I remember from seminar and what I think about it?

when does ketchup and mustard come to Finland
Which kind of kioskes is exist: kiosk culture, some kiosks open their doors only at night
What does kiosks sell? - Fast food: meat pies, sausages, trips, juices, limonade, newspapers and other stuff
we saw much old pictures (black and white pics)
Linnanmäki serves first hamburgers in Finland
Porilainen is not actually from Pori, but the sausage is.
I actually expect more about seminar. I tought we will hear something else than 'when hot dog kioskes come to Finland?

I could suggest exhibition for all who like history and love to see old goods.
