Old Town Raahe’s House, Environment and Act of the Year Award

Since 2017, the “House and Environment of the Year” award has recognised sites in Old Town Raahe. From 2026 onwards, deeds and phenomena will also be honoured. The recognition raises interest in revitalising the historic wooden town and brings appreciation to exemplary guardians of cultural heritage.

The award will be presented at the Pooki Flakkaa – Raahe Maritime Festival on 11 July.

The event is part of the official Oulu2026 European Capital of Culture programme.
