The earliest mention of Jurmo Island is found in a 13th-century Danish itinerary describing a sailing route from Denmark to Tallinn. This rocky and sandy low-lying island is the third protrusion of the Salpausselkä ridge rising from the sea, stretching from Hämeenlinna to Angelniemi. However, rising between the harbor and the village is a magnificent 18-meter-high cliff called Högberget. From there, breathtaking views open up in every direction, and you can find lichen-covered remnants of the country’s defense history.

CONCRETE DECAY – the antidote to beauty clichés

The Science Term Bank defines beauty as an aesthetic quality that is generally considered a type of aesthetic value. According to the philosopher Plato, beauty is a true reality that can be understood by reason, but whose imperfect reflections can also be perceived by the senses. Aristotle, on the other hand, defended the principle of purposefulness. The opposite of these views is that beauty is a purely subjective value, i.e., beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Also ugliness is in the eye of the beholder. Decadent romanticism, the beauty of ugliness, is an ideological movement that emerged in the late 18th century. According to it, an object can be perceived as beautiful simply because looking at it gives pleasure.
