What is "huhtiniemi"

Huhtiniemi is a neighborhood in the city of Lappeenranta in South-Eastern Finland. It is located 2 kilometers west of the town center on a cape of the same name, that extends into lake Saimaa in the North. The campus of the Lappeenranta University of Technology is located to the west of Huhtiniemi. The area now contains apartment buildings, camping grounds and student housing of the university.

The area housed a shooting range associated with the military barracks in Lappeenranta, until at least the mid 1970s.
