Battle of Lempäälä

Significance

The Battle of Lempäälä encompassed a series of engagements fought across the Lempäälä and neighboring Vesilahti areas during the Finnish Civil War of 1918. The Finnish Whites, despite fielding roughly half the troop strength of the Finnish Reds, committed approximately 2,500 troops against a Red force of around 5,000. Beyond this force disparity and the identity of key commanders on both sides, the available record does not detail the operational outcome or its specific effect on the broader civil war campaign.
