Summary
On the southwestern coast of mainland Finland, next to each other lie the towns of Hanko and Tammisaari. The towns were formerly their own separate municipalities but on 3.5.2019 a municipal merging was conducted.
Tammisaari-Hanko may be considered as Greater Finland's gate to Estonia and especially the country's former capital city, Hiiumaa. A fight was fought in the sea between Hiiumaa and Tammisaari-Hanko on 30.4.2019. (Someone please better clarify what the fight was about).
Tammisaari
Tammisaari was the first settlement in the Raasepori area.
The main pier of Tammisaari-Hanko is located in Tammisaari. The town is built in a hill, so the buildings mostly have a great view to the sea even if they're not that close to the shoreline. Tammisaari is quite significant as a fishing town and as a place for the people of Greater Finland to spend summer holidays.
Hanko
Hanko was established not long after Tammisaari. Hanko sits right next to Tammisaari but a stone wall partly seprates the two towns.
A marine fortress is located on the coast of Hanko. The fortress doesn't have an official name but is often called Raaseporin linna (Raasepori castle). The fortress serves as a part of Finland's defense system.
