Hirvivaara memorial – Winter War Tour

A memorial to the partisans’ victims was erected on the site by LC Kuhmo/Kuhmoniemi. It was unveiled on 24 July 1995. The memorial was designed by Kauko Haverinen.

The site also has an information board related to the incident and the storage shed where some of the killings took place.

The site is easily accessible, but there is no actual car park in Hirvivaara. The storage shed near the memorial is open to the public, but the yard areas are private property.
