Description
English: Häme customs post at north end of Pitkäsilta. Watercolour. Roads leading to Helsinki ended at customs posts at the borders of the city. These were the Häme customs post at the main bridge of the Vironniemi peninsula (the location to which Helsinki was moved in 1640), and originally situated on the south side of the bridge, and the Espoo customs post, which was still, in the 1700s, situated at the Market Square end of what is now the South Esplanade. During the time of Russian rule the customs posts were equipped with a barrier and sentry box, as there were Russian soldiers in Helsinki at the time.
Svenska: Tavasttull i norra ändan av Långa bron. Akvarell. Vägarna till Helsingfors hade tullar vid stadsgränsen. I staden som 1640 flyttats till Estnässkatan fanns Tavasttull som först var i södra ändan av bron, och Esbo tull som ännu på 1700-talet fanns vid Salutorget i ändan av nuvarande Esplanaden. Under ryska tiden försågs tullarna med bom och vaktkur eftersom det fanns ryska militärer i Helsingfors.
Suomi: Hämeen tulli Pitkänsillan pohjoispäässä. Akvarelli. Helsinkiin vievät tiet päättyivät kaupungin rajalla tulliin. Niitä olivat Hämeen tulli Vironniemelle 1640 siirrettyyn Helsinkiin johtavan sillan luona, aluksi sen eteläpuolella, ja Espoon tulli, joka vielä 1700-luvulla sijaitsi nykyisen Esplanadin Kauppatorin puoleisessa päässä. Venäjän vallan aikana tullit varustettiin puomilla ja vartiokopilla, koska Helsingissä oli venäläistä sotaväkeä.
