Hey there everyone!
If you have any questions about history of Ventelä and the village that stands here nowadays, don't hesitate to contact me.
My family is among the little amount of finns still remaining in the ceded lands.
We have acquired several plots of lands in the area since the 1980s and up until very recently my grandpa has been serving as the local mayor.
Until 2022 we also owned the guest house (whatever remained of it of course:/ ) that stand right across from the Thesleff's (Theslöf) manor
I can provide fresh pictures upon request.
My finnish is subpar to put it mildly, but I'm sure we can figure something out.
With all the best wishes, Vadim Barmash
