- Сражение при Пюхяйоки — первое значительное сражение русско-шведской войны 1808—1809 годов, состоялось 4 (16) апреля 1808 года. В конце марта 1808 года Тучков соединился с Раевским в Гамлекарлебю; их соединённый отряд насчитывал под ружьём 4600 человек. Морозы и выпавший глубокий снег удержали его на несколько дней на месте. Видя неудачу своей конницы, шведская пехота, державшаяся на дороге, отступила, потому что русские гусары и казаки угрожали обходом её правого фланга. Преследование продолжалось до Пюхяйоки. (ru)
