Walk around Forssa, September 2023, Finland [4K] #slowtv

Walk around the city of Forssa, especially close to the Spinning mill buildings (Kehräämö) on the shore of Kuhalankoski that nowadays host museums, library, schools and restaurant.

Forssa has a population of 16,494 (19 September 2023) and is the 68th largest in Finland. The development of Forssa into an industrial conurbation started when industrialist Axel Wilhelm Wahren founded a spinning mill on the shore of the river Loimijoki in 1847. Today the Forssa industrial community has been classified as a notable constructed cultural environment in Finland. In 1903 a party meeting of the Finnish Workers' Party, known as the Forssa meeting, was held in Forssa, where the party was renamed as the Social Democratic Party of Finland and a new party program was accepted into use. Forssa only became an independent municipality in 1923 when it was separated from the municipality of Tammela into its own market town. Forssa received city privileges in 1964.The depression in the early 1990s had a large impact on Forssa, resulting in economic problems and an unemployment rate that still remains high today.

Forssa looks a calm and peaceful town with a lot of history. Now thanks to you, I know it's the 68th largest city in Finland. I know only top 50, from Helsinki till Iisalmi, because I'm not a maniac :)) That turtle in 20:30 was really big :)). Very nice and pleasant walk and a lovely weather at this day.
