C'est un monument commémoratif de Petsamo, une ville finlandaise que nous avons perdu dans la deuxième guerre mondiale pour Union Soviétieque.

(My French is not as good as that of M. Rimpiläinen, so I will trouble you with English) Petsamo became part of Finland in the Treaty of Tartu in 1920 and was lost to the Soviets in the Armistice of 1944. It was Finland's only harbour that was not iced in during the winter and therefor an important commercial port. The Petsamo area also contained the largest nickel mine in Europe (Nikel) and the main village of the Skolt Sami, Suenjel. The figures in the monument depict a miner (the mine), a fisherman (the harbour), a man with a shovel (probably building of the Inari-Petsamo road) and a Skolt Sami woman with a cradle.
