A central theme, furthermore, is to inform about the use and technical development of the armoured fighting vehicles in the Army of independent Finland, beginning from the first Renault F.T. Modèle 1917 tanks, bought in 1919.
The Tank Museum is also paying honours to the Finnish soldier. It offers a historical display of the skills and success of the Finnish armoured troops - especially of the wartime tank division - against a superior enemy in the battles of our last wars.
