This weekend marks the 25th anniversary of one of Europe’s worst maritime disasters, when the M/S Estonia ferry sailing from Tallinn to Stockholm sank with the loss of 852 passengers and crew.

Most of the victims were Swedes and Estonians, but ten Finnish passengers were also among the casualties on 28th September 1994.
