From Suomussalmi,the northernmost municipality in the Kainuu region. Unlike most old cities of Finland, it has a well-preserved medieval/renaissance old town with walls intact. Suomussalmi is divided in two parts by Lake Kiantajärvi: both the modern city downtown and the old town are situated in the southern part. The old town is situated on the shore of the eponymous strait 'salmi', and the modern city southeast of it.
