town plan. Included in the town plan of 1857 were the park streets that
had both a fire brake and architectural function. The church avenue is
one of the most visible elements in the centre of Lovisa. A park that is
approximately 50 metres wide stretches half a kilometre eastward from the
church.

but originally it was a hotel combined with a restaurant and a ballroom. It
was designed by Georg Chiewitz in 1863.
5. The Kappeli square used to be a horse field (the generals field) adjacent to
the Commendants house. The pond in the southern part of the park is a
remnant from the digging done to build Bastion Carl in the middle of the 18th
century. The building is nowadays a summer restaurant, but has been closed
for a while now. They are planning to open the restaurant again, but first the
building has to be renovated.

the northern single storey section in the 1920's. The house received its name

the outer walls and corner constructions, which form pilasters.
