Pekkatori
Pekkatori square is the most important entity included in the town plan drawn by Gustaf Odenwall in 1811 after the fire of Raahe.
It was to become an administrative and trading centre. Plots around the square were given to the most notable burghers of the town, i.e. the aldermen, merchants and shipowners.
A new town hall was planned to be built on the plot of the southwest corner of the square, instead the mansion of Gustav Brunow was purchased from his estate by the Town of Raahe.
The centre of the square has a statue of Count Per Brahe, Queen Kristina’s governor general, made by Walter Runeberg. The statue was erected in 1888 and looks towards the sea.
