A date for the submission will be decided separately.
Sites to be removed from list
At the same time as the proposal of Aalto’s architecture, Finland will remove a number of cultural heritage sites from the list as they no longer fully meet the criteria for inclusion.
These include rock carvings at the island of Gaddtarmen (Hauensuoli), a Stone Age ruin at Pattijoki, rock paintings at Ristiina, and Paimio Hospital (formerly Paimio Sanatorium), which will be removed from the list as a separate listing but is one of the 13 sites on the Aalto list.
