100% let down. Entrance fee is 3.5€. Basically normal animal farm except ostrich instead of the cows behind the fence. They also had some sheep and deer inside other enclosures. They had some chickens in the cages too. Cutest things were baby ostriches under the warm lamp. But the glass between was so dirrty... Skip it, visit only worth if you think that 3.5€ is not too expensive to see those big birds close up.

Laid back farm with lots of animals for the small ones to enjoy. The ostriches are the main attraction but you can find lots of deers, chickens, sheep and rabbits on the ground. There is a small and very reasonable entry fee. There is also a small coffee place where you can get refreshments and something to eat. You can also acquire ostrich meat and animal skins from it.

Excellent pastries and coffee. For a small fee of 4€ you can see ostriches, chicken, deer, goats and sheep.

4e entrance, worth the stop! Beautiful deers and other animals, good sandwhich.

waisting of time does not worth money as well (4€ entrance) nothing really interesting here hosts are bored with their farm and people

Not worth to go really... Not presentable, welcoming or taken care of, felt sorry for the young ostriches.

Kids liked it. But what a smelly creatures are those ostriches...

Free entrance to the museum. A small but very well presented automobile museum.

Delicious munkki, fresh coffee, and very cool old school cars on display! Plus some great views. Definitely worth a visit !

Super delicious munkki, free museum to a nice car collection. Don't miss the observation deck nearby and lake views.

Excellent collection! Rustic, authentic dislays and atmosphere. Lovely museum shop with a wide selection of scale diecast cars.

A great collection of old automobiles and also model cars. Free entry! In the museum there is a gift shop to buy model cars and souvenirs. In the same building there is a cafe, that sells hot food, pastries, and ice cream and has a great outdoor terrace to enjoy an amazing view over the lake. There is also a viewing tower next to the museum for a better view over the beautiful landscape. Beautiful place to make a stop!

A small but good museum that is free to look around and has a very popular café boasting good views as well as a shop selling scale model cars, branded mugs and other accessories. They really like foxes here too which made the visit even more entertaining as small toy foxes were placed randomly throughout the exhibition.

I nice stop off for food, coffee and some amazing vehicles!

Very interesting exhibition, pretty versatile collection in two buildings, beautiful environment, very good cafe and lunch restaurant, family friendly, beach etc. You can easily spend a few hours there. Or have a swim and spend the whole day 😊

A nice little museum in a beautiful location next to a lake. Some very interesting cars, motorcycles and trucks. A nice little cafe where you can eat at a reasonable price.

Excellent place to visit ,especially when your son is a fan of cars and ralli 😍

For 15 euro price it wasn't worth it, most of the ''exclusive cars'' had dust on them, also most cars had a really bad paintjob, and a lot of cars even had visible rust. Some cars looked liked they got taken from some parking lot and did not leave a slightest impression. Also it was really hard to find the entrance to the building. The cars themselves were behind glass so you could not walk around them, one porsche was in the middle behind all the cars and you could barely see it. Of course there were some interesting cars, but the overall exhibition didn't leave a mark.

Amazing collection! Friendly, informative staff.

Super

Cool cars

Very interesting place, worth visiting, Wikström 's house like from a tale, and the cultural heritage amazing! Incredibly talented person whose house hidden in beautiful landscape. I'll definitely visit again. Little minus for the closed cafe, would be nice to have a cup of coffee inside.

This place has amazing view of lake, can spend couple of hours there during summer. Also, have a coffe shop, nice to enjoy a cup of coffee with the view.

Just five minutes from the highway or half an hour bicycle ride from Toijala railway station will take you 100 years back. Really worth visiting.

We loved visiting his home and atelier. We didn’t expect the observatory! The cafe have lovely vegan options, both vegan milk for your coffee or tea and couple of pastries that were superb. Highly recommend!

We stopped here on the route from Hämeenlinna to Tampere, but were not sure if we should visit the museum or not. First thing a lady was waiting upstairs trying to get us to buy tickets straight away. We went to the cafe first to buy some ice creams for the kids that we had promised, the ice creams were reasonably priced, but we had to go outside to the terrace because the air inside was really bad and it was raining outside. For a short while we stood by the door making sure we don’t disturb any other customers allowing the kids to eat their ice creams. The lady who tried to make us buy the tickets was clearly annoyed we hadn’t bought any at that stage, and first complained to the children that they hadn’t put their ice cream paper in the rubbish bin, then complained that we were obstructing the handrail on the completely empty stairs. She did all this in the rudest possible way. Even though we were honestly planning to pay a visit to the museum and had even checked the prices beforehand, it was an easy decision not to buy the ticket at this stage. We rather went to sit on a boat for one hour instead, waiting for it to leave. The museum might have been great, but we had no way to see it, because part of our group refused to buy the tickets at this stage. Excellent job repelling paying customers.

Not quite what I was expected when I visited without knowing what it would be. Turned out it's just 2 buildings, where the artist was living, and another one is his working place.

Very interesting place. Unfortunately, there wasn't any guide to tell us about that fantastic Place. Worth to visit again 😊

Truly one of the most amazing churches I have seen both outside and inside. From the outside it looks like a medieval castle, and from the inside it is a true work of art. It houses one of the most famous paintings in Finland, the Fallen Angel, as well as another striking one with a skull. The interior has many unusual elements that make you curious to learn more about its history and culture. We entered just after a wedding, and within five minutes we could go in without any problem. Everything was spotless. You can also walk up from one of the sides and admire the church from that angle, and it is completely free. We were lucky to hear someone playing the piano during our visit, which made the atmosphere even more special. A must-see in Tampere, and perhaps even in all of Finland.

After a long, exhausting week of exams, visiting Tampere Cathedral on 15.12 felt like a breath of peace. The quiet beauty, soft light, and calming atmosphere wrapped around us the moment we walked in. It was exactly the gentle pause our tired minds needed—a place that reminded us to breathe, slow down, and feel grounded again.

Magnificent! So pretty! The entrance way is so magical! We weren't inside the building due to wedding ceremony but I would like to visit some other time!

Tampere Cathedral (Tuomiokirkko) • Location: Tuomiokirkonkatu 3b, Tampere • Built: 1902–1907 • Style: National Romantic (Finnish early 20th-century style) • Famous for: • Frescoes by Hugo Simberg like The Wounded Angel and The Garden of Death • Altar painting by Magnus Enckell • Visiting: Free entry; open daily (hours depend on season) • Function: Lutheran cathedral, holds regular services and events

One of the most beautiful cathedrals I have been to. The exterior is built from stone. There are 2000 seats inside. Astonishing design.

Beautiful Cathedral with amazing architecture.

I had the opportunity to visit this beautiful cathedral whilst visiting for one of Tarja's Christmas shows. Finland has beautiful architecture throughout its country. Tarja's show made this environment even more surreal.

Amazing museum with unexpected themes they have. In Vapriikki, they have many themes, such as DNA museum, Hockey, and even game museum! We enjoyed the venue, and ticket for children with less than 7 y.o is still free.

Don't let the €15 Euro entry put you off! It's definitely worth visiting this museum. It's informative and interactive - especially the games exhibition which was like walking through your childhood again and I even learnt that one of my favourite games comes from Finland! There is an interesting assortment of themes for the museum such as radio, post, Dungeons and Dragons history, ice hockey hall of fame and of course, the textile industry that built Tampere. This city was built because of the British and people saw the rapids and thought "money" - classic industrial revolution starter pack. This unfortunately is where the museum loses a stat from me, all of the information about the fabric industry is in Finnish with nothing in English which is such a shame when everything else in the museum is in both languages. Last but not least, go and check out the music exhibition for some Finnish knock offs of British classics. Definitely worth a visit

An outstanding location for anyone interested in various museum exhibits. The building itself is really striking and in addition to that houses several very well curated exhibitions. We came for the video game museum, but ended up checking almost everything they had. For the 15€ entrance fee this was stellar value for the money! All the exhibitions have English translations everywhere, so visitors outside the country don't need to feel being left out. The building is very easy to navigate and all the facilities are clean. The staff at the entrance was polite. As a whole the experience was highly recommended. The only tiny annoyance was the cafeteria at the center of the building, with a 0.5l soda costing 5€, which is a highway robbery.

This place completely surpassed our expectations. It had the superheroes exhibition which was really cool. The games exhibition was highly entertaining and brought back plenty of childhood memories. Plenty of different gaming consoles and games for everyone to try. The minerals exhibition was also really cool. We stayed for about 2 hours but definitely could have stayed much longer if not for hunger pangs. Language-wise, it was pretty accommodating. There were QR codes which you could scan to learn more. Would definitely come back again!

🎸🦌💎 A little bit of everything under one roof — and free Fridays make it even better! What a fun and eclectic museum! It’s got something for everyone — from incredibly lifelike wildlife dioramas (some of them are scarily realistic 👀), to sparkling gemstones, Marvel superheroes 🦸‍♂️, Finnish history, and even a whole section dedicated to Finland’s rock ‘n roll scene 🎶🇫🇮. Best part? Fridays are free for certain exhibitions — definitely worth planning around if you're looking to visit on a budget! There’s also a cozy restaurant and a gift shop on-site, so you can grab a bite or pick up something cool after exploring. Great place to spend a few hours — kids and adults alike will find something to enjoy. #FinlandMuseums #FreeFridayFinds #MarvelMeetsMoose #RockNRollHistory #FamilyDayOut #HiddenGem

There are very enjoyable interactive games in the museum. The employees are irritable as if they haven't had enough sleep. Many people were there with their children, and they probably find it just as fun as the adults. There was even the Super Mario game. You can lock your belongings in the box at the entrance

Great experience, a bunch of exhibitions at a low price. Fun for all ages.

There are only a few Spy Museums in the world, and one of them is located very close to the Tampere train station. It houses a collection of espionage devices used by different countries across various time periods. Although it differs somewhat from the portrayal of spy gear in modern spy movies, seeing the items up close offers a unique experience. The museum also features introductions to famous spies from different countries, making the content quite rich. One downside, however, is that the interaction between the exhibits and visitors is somewhat limited, which affects the overall immersive experience.

It's ok if you don't come Saturday. Too much people and the display is little bit hectic and difficult to go around. Much to see, but really small area.

Good but a bit small. Very interesting! The tunnel in the middle of the museum was very exciting. Definitely worth a visit!!

What fun! And interesting. As we don't know the Finnish language, we were given folders with English language translations for all of the information panels. Some are already on display in English, but many are not and this folder on as quite helpful. The exhibits start with pre-WW1 spying and move through to present day. Information gathering techniques, hidden weapons, spy rings, spies, and much more are detailed in the exhibits. There's even a quiz you can take along the way. I highly recommend a visit.

A small museum with a lot of materials on the history and technology of espionage. Everything is in Finnish, but you are provided with a thick booklet in English. We had only 40 min and this was barely enough.

Interesting Spy museum. Plenty of interesting things from the spy world. You can take on a mission whilst going around. Enjoyable 45 minutes

What a fun, interactive museum this is. An abundance of interesting and educational features, as well as many different stories about some of the worlds most (in)famous spies from around the world. No photos added here as photos aren’t allowed in the museum. Recommend buying the Museokortti, which is a card one can buy for around €70, with which you can access over 300 museums across Finland for 12 months. This card is for sale at the Spy Museum. Recommend 3-4 hours at this museum if you enjoy reading all there is to read!

Näsinneula Restaurant offers a stunning setting with breathtaking views over Lake Näsijärvi and the nearby amusement park. The atmosphere is truly unique, thanks to the revolving tower and the elegant interior. The food was very good, well-prepared and nicely presented. Service was smooth and professional throughout the visit. One downside was the restroom facilities — they were quite small for the number of guests, and the soap dispenser was broken during our visit. Overall, a solid dining experience in a beautiful location. Definitely worth a visit for the views alone!

To get to the highest point, you need to go upstairs to a restaraunt which is fine dining. The restaraunt slowly moves around and you can enjoy amazing views. The area below it is nice and has binocycles you can pay with coins to use. Nice views and the elevator is very fast, your ears might get "locked", so be aware of that.

Great views and nice experience overall. The rotating tower gives you a full 360° look at Tampere, and it’s cool to just sit and watch the city slowly shift around you. They give you a complimentary drink with the ticket, which was a pleasant surprise. Only downside is the price, it feels a bit high for what’s essentially a short visit unless you’re planning to eat at the restaurant. Still, worth checking out at least once, especially if you're new to the city.

Great experience, you can see so far away and it's very tall. The elevator was very cool too!

The observation deck is amazing (not free to access, though) but it is a very stunning experience. We went to the restaurant for a fine dining. Everything went okay but mind that you go here mainly for the views rather than for the catering (there were quite a few hiccups including a spilled drink all over the table by the staff). You will not overeat with a full Finlandia menu - no worries if you come not too hungry. Drinks are not cheap by any means. Three spins around the city views completes the experience. Paid 120 per person with drinks. It is fine for a one-time experience, I guess.

Reserve! Food itself was good if you take the eg Finland menu. Otherwise you will have to go to a second restaurant afterwards because you WILL leave hungry! Portions are *teeny tiny*and service is not very attentive. You will have to wait long time for next course. In-between you might need to make yourself aware, otherwise also no drinks while waiting for the food.

This was our *Final Destination* after a day at the fare ground. Tasty food, very expensive. But worth the experience

It’s such a small place, it takes you about 10-15 minutes to visit everything here. And you don’t get to see something that special. Is ok for enjoying with the kids but, that is about it! A little bit disappointed.

The aquarium is fine, not very big so it can be seen in around 1 hour. There are stairs and no elevator so a pram was not possible to be used for our child. Downside is all information about the animals is written in Finnish, except for a few facts here and there. Be wary, there’s parking in the amusement park premises, but it costs 18€ independently of the length of your stay, which is crazy expensive!

It's a really nice aquarium with a lot of animals. They have the "stars", animals that have been there for a long time and have a good story behind them, super interesting to know. The only problem is that it's not too big but it's amazing and they have a lot of different species!!

The aquarium consist of two floors with about 30 exhibits. Some of which are terrariums and paludariums. Sadly many of the tanks are quite cramped with fish. They have a sturgeon that is barely able to swim in circles. Other tanks are in dire need of a proper cleaning. Okayish for young children to look at the animals. The price was €10 and you're done in around 1 hour.

Small but cute and enjoyable place. Very good addition to the rest, which makes a good combination for making the day fun for everybody.

Quite nice place, not the biggest aquarium but if you take the time to thoroughly look at every exhibition, and read all the information about every fish, youll be plenty entertained. Good experience, some fascinating fishes.

A small aquarium, but enough for a family trip. I saw some parents trying to show the children the new species here.

This was impressive .. but did expect more from yhis place so I feel like I was let down. Though the museum wasn’t that big, the art pieces there are beautiful.. also the plain concrete wall behind made those pieces stood out even more.

This moderately small museum has very interesting exhibitions, the latest being WE by Thomas Houseago and also smaller exhibitions by Nick Cave and Brad Pitt. It's a place to see in itself, it is situated by the lake Nasijarvi in Tampere. It's about 20 minute walk from the central square of Tampere or you can take a bus to get there.

A small 2 storey museum with a cafe located a little outside the city centre. The museum was showcasing a temporary exhibition by THOMAS HOUSEAGO – WE WITH NICK CAVE & BRAD PITT. The art and sculptures featured were abstract. It was a curiosity to experience and contemplate the tempest of Brad Pitt in his art pieces e.g. the acrylic blocks of bullet sprays slowed and frozen in time. The life of the devil conveyed in a series of porcelain pieces from birth to death was unusual since the devil is more populary accepted as immortal. Brings to mind the Song by Joan Osborn "One of Us". We would have liked to have seen the permanent artworks of local artists collected by Sara Hilden but sadly none were on display. The visit took less than 2 hours, a part of the time was spent at the café. FOOD AT SARA'S CAFÉ: 👍👍👍👍 Cosy café with really delicious, creamy chocolate cake and good brewed coffee. The museum is water facing, has very limited but free parking. Place is wheelchair friendly.

It's one of the prettiest museums that I have ever been to. I absolutely loved it, and they gave out free audio guides!

Not crowded at all, so that was great!! It had a nice small selection of modern art pieces, which we mostly checked out because some of them where made by Brad Pitt 😅 Quite interesting, it's just behind Sarkaniemi so it's easy to get there. There are also some art pieces outside, so be sure to explore that area as well :)

I did enjoy nick cave and brat pitt's art. The museum always have quality exhibition.

Lovely gallery with pictures and sculptures. Set in pretty grounds overlooking the lake witj a nice cafe. You can drive right up to it but may need to ask the funfair staff to open the access gate

Great local cafe! We really enjoyed the Mukkis (kinda like a donut but a different batter and taste). The Kinkkupiirakka (ham pie) was absolutely amazing. I suggest the local soda made by the cafe. They have a strawberry and spruce flavor. Both are good. They have tea, coffee and juice as well. After we ventured up to the top of the tower to take in the beautiful view of the city. You can take the stairs or ride the elevator. There are a few stairs then at the end to get to the top. We had a beautiful day with breathtaking skies. Definitely recommend. After there are trails to walk that can take you in any direction in town. All tree covered, at least in the summer.

The donut texture is great, nice and chewy. The flavor is good but has cardamom, which may turn some people off. I also liked the cheesecake a lot. It didn’t have a very strong cheese flavor and tasted slightly of vanilla. When I went there was a long line. They have another location at Tampere Market Hall, which is also closer to everything else in the city. I didn’t verify that the food was the same though

I haven't been here since we lived in Tampere in 1997. This place was on my bucket list upon returning for a vacation in July of 2025. It's the first place I ever tried a Finnish munkki. It did not disappoint! Beautiful scenery, fabulous views of Tampere and the lakes, plus delicious munkki with coffee ☕️. I'm so glad this lived up to my memories. ($2 to ride the elevator to see the views.)

They have vegan donut (only large size, 3 euros) and it was very tasty! A bit too much sugar for my taste but I could just shake some off and everyone else said it wasn’t too much. Coffee also was surprisingly good for coming from a filter coffee machine. Probably because there’s a lot of people buying and the coffee is made frequently. The line can be long since it’s a small and busy shop.

It takes some effort to find the Pyynikki tower when you come by public transport, but it's totally worth a visit! The donuts are freshly made and just delicious (if you like cardamom!). Tickets to the observation tower cost only 2 euros for adults, so that's a bargain! From downstairs the tower looked disappointingly low to me, but since the tower is on the top of a hill, the view is great anyway! If you don't feel like walking up the stairs, there's an elevator as well. Tip: you can go even 1 floor higher to the roof.

I'm Polish, so I know what a good doughnut is like, and these are excellent doughnuts ;) We came on a rainy Sunday afternoon, so it was not too busy and we could enjoy the food from a cozy window overlooking the forest. It is possible to park for free at the top along the road leading to the tower, there is a free toilet, and the café can be accessed without paying the fee for the tower.

Probably the best doughnuts I have ever had. Make sure you try the spruce lemonade soda. It's made in house and it's fantastic.

Nice church, good old yard

It could use a bit of color :)

Beautiful little Catholic church

God tier

Beautiful old church

butiful egg

(Translated by Google) The church was well kept inside and out. The parish has taken care of its approx. 500-year-old national treasure with respect. (Original) Kirkko oli hyvin pidetty kunnossa sisältä ja päältä. Seurakunta on huoltanut n.500-vuotista kansallisaarrettaan kunnioitettavasti.

Beware: "K18" means 18+ Very disappointed to find that out at the door. Customer service was no help and after more than an hour only able to offer two names of patrons seeking tickets; neither of whom actually were. I read the info section at least twice and did not get any idea that we would be denied entry since the only mention of minors was that they required a guardian to accompany them.

Museum exhibits are nice and well curated, but in terms of quantity there really isn't a lot of value for money. The milieu itself is great of course, so spend some time wandering the grounds. Wouldn't bother with the restaurant, the service is slow and quite rude, and they genuinely seem to have no idea what products they have available.

2021:Great food and nice service. Entire area is really beautifull. Including Art around 8n buildings. 2025 fantastic music paradice garden including beverage and food service. Not to forget that this is firat place for me ever, where huge amount of customers were served professionally as well with sanitary.

The summer lunch buffet is of very good quality.

Hi, very hot day and place crowded. Staff was super friendly and we were served very nicely. We will probably visit future gigs here as well.

Summertime concerts, super. Excellent food and beverages etc. Thanks Liisa!

We went years ago and it was lovely! Had a nice waffle with ice cream and strawberries in a table in the grass. Music and lively vibes. But we went a week ago and it changed completely. They dont have the waffle anymore. The outside sitting for the cafe is next to the wall, one next to another, not in the grass around. Its a mess because you come in and theres the cafe buffet restaurant all in the same area. You dont know what is what or whats the price of what. All is there messed up. And prices are crazy. Sorry but never more. Not worth it

Gym in the basement, three swimming pools, jacuzzi, sauna, hammam. There is one water slide. Nice place to relax.

25m track for swimming, jump tower (1,5m & 3m), one water slide, hot and cold water pools, bubble bath and artificial wave pool. Nice and clean, not too much people.

Cozy mid-sized spa, kids and parents alike seem to love the wave machine. Includes different depths for 0-6 year Olds, 120cm tall, distance swimmers etc. There is a cafereteria at the ticket sales.

Not too crowded, clean pools and reasonable prices. Good value for money, especially when visiting with kids.

Joined the dive club for morning swim and SCUBA. Great work out.

A family friendly spa with possibility to swim some distance also.

Very good

Nature 5 starts. Paths 5 stars. Trash everywhere - WTH!? Roittening wood pieces piled everywhere, destroying the experience.

I saw so many cranberries! And mushrooms! Edible and inedible ones.

The largest swamp of southern finland. Relatively crowded, so take your Nokia rubber boots and start exploring

If you like bogs - this the place for you! The national park of Torronsuo covers over 30 square kilometers of bog and forest. They have nice well signed trails of various lengths around the park. I like the 8.5 km Suontaival trail which covers most important places. It is a wonderful walk with long long duckboards. I would highly recommend taking it. There are two parking areas with toilets along the trail. Remeber that during the summer there might be a lot of mosquitos so prepare for them accordingly. The park has english www-site with maps.

Nice trail that leads deep to a swamp. Views are special and so different from what I've seen. Quite and peaceful. The only bad thing was a part of the trail goes along a big road with 80 km/h speed limit. It spoils the impression. Moreover it is dangerous as there's no pedestrian line.

A beautiful national park with different trails, info signs, a bird watching tower, and benches.

Easy hiking trail and scenically beautiful. Most of the path is on the wooden planks.

Probably one of the best museum railway I have ever been. Well organized, reasonable prices, good service. There are connecting programs in Minkiö station during the season, eg. veteran cars, steam engines, old tractors etc.

Loveliest train museum at the Finnish country side, many old locomotives that you can get in. Don't forget to check the old museum steam train schedules prior to your visit - Minkiö - Humppila is a route worth experiencing

Great place! Not very big, but good work restoring steam engines. No baby changing facilities, but free to enter and walk around steam engines and sheds 👍🏻

Great atmosphere and nice service. You can also check out all the old trains while here.

Riding lovely little steam train was like going back in time.

Rented the handcar. Worked flawlessly, a lot of fun. Some resting / snack eating locations and wonderful Finnish countryside views. Be aware the rise to Humppila requires effort but coming back is rewarded with long and fast downhill.

Very nice and helpful volunteers and interesting rail related items

Easy access to beautiful environment and forest wiev with information alongside the road. The Easy access road ends with q homy little boutique and café. If you climb up high you can see a stunning wiev of forest and lake and summer houses across the lake. The Pirunvuori has a very old house made of stones and has interesting folk stories.

Easy climb up to the mountain. Interesting buildings on the way up. Spectacular view from the top!

Beatiful Finland Hill Nature, easy access. Nice view to lake and in good weather can even see 5 churches around area... And there was no devil to be seen...:)

Intresting place and very nice view..

Wonderful track and view. Go there at sunset, it's breathtaking.

Definitely worth to do short walk to the top. Interesting scenery!

Good fotos can be taken here, liked the view

Definitely one of the most beautiful places for a church in Finland! And the church is even a medieval stonechurch. Amazing place with so many stories to tell.

Absolutely wonderful placr

Terrific place! If you are in Sastamalan and don't have a car, be prepared for part of the way walking on a roadside, but it seems to be quite safe.

Beautiful place to visit. Lovely countryside landscape and the view of lake water.

Amazing old church at a scenic spot. Very interesting renovation and interior decorations.

Beautiful medieval church. Go and see it

Great place to visit 👍

Really interesting museum for those who are fans of Finnish literature, and books in general. Note that the exhibitions are not in English. There is a fun escape room experience included in the ticket price too.

Delicious pastries, friendly and cosy service and everything is at a bargain. A very recommendable cafe right next to Herra Hakkarainen's house (a famous finnish character in childrens book created by Mr. Mauri Kunnas). We never visited the museum, just cafe wirh children.

There is not much to see.

A very nice and charming museum that would have earned an extra star if not for the misfortunate fact that its in Finnish language only. The museum offers a lot of fun and playing for kids.

Visited just the caffee, not the museum. Pleasant little cafe.

Very nice lunch restaurant. Helpful staff.

There was great escape room and we had great time with family😃

This is a fun and interactive place for families to visit. It has a quest for kids, a buffet and lots of fun info. This museum tells about the old times how people loved in Finland. It has a outdoor exhibition which contains old buildings, old machines and even rabbits, chickens and sheep!

Great place to visit with kids that we just discovered. We have been exploring smaller towns of Finland and discovered this museum of agriculture in Finland in a small town of Loimaa in Finland. The place is actually great for kids, offers really many interaction possibilities, you can actually sit at a drivers seat of a harvester with a video projecting the field and your operating the vehicle. Also many other similar small activities that were absolutely enjoyed by our two sons (2 and 5 year old). Also there is an outdoor exhibition of some old farm buildings which is nice to explore when the weather is good. I strongly recommend to visit this place, with or without children. Also it has some great lunch buffet, homemade food quality, at normal buffet prices.

Nice museum about agriculture. Exhibitions about the history, old tools and tractors. Treasure hunt for the kids and a nice lunch/cafe place. Perfect for a rainy day.

Pretty worth it! This museum is interesting and learns you many things about Loimaa's way of life. The only problem is that much things are only on Finish (not everything of course but some interesting things), so I was happy to go there with a Finish friend!

Fascinating, a reminder of how hard-scrabble a life the Finns had until recently. Good tractor collection.

Rare museum on the Finish level. Their new exhibition gives the guest a good impression of how life was before industrial farming.

Beautiful and interesting museum in a fresh building and pretty landscape. All info also in English. Definitely worth a stop!

An amazing reflection of a super weird and quirky artist.

Robust moss covered statues amidst a moss-clad trees, mushrooms and ponds, this is the life-work of artist Alpo Jaakola. His message so true in this day and age.

Uudestaan! I wanna see this again! Inspiring!

Lots of creative artwork!

Nice sculptures in Finnish forest

Closed too early in summer.

Amazing atomosphere

You walk around in the swamp äreä on a route made of planks. Beautiful place Easy to go, remember to bring coffe and maybe somethinng to eat. Like many places we have been here around, there need to be english translation on the many signs that relles you about the area. But anyway its so nice all over

Many birds to see, don't forget binoculars. Check the parking placee because Google maps target is wrong

Some of the wooden road was badly damaged.

Such a pretty place, even though it's far from everything.

Really pretty place, a lot of nature

Stunning.

Nice place to spend a day.

We went to see an exhibition by Mari Rantanen called Tunne värinä, and loved it. It's a small local museum, but keeping that in mind their space and all exhibitions I've seen have been great. The curators clearly know what they're doing. There's also a free tour every day that's included in the ticket price, possibly only in Finnish though, which is nice. Driving from Helsinki to Turku this is our must see stop every time there's a new exhibition.

Good location, plenty of space. Amazing Chinese photographer.

Current art show with Chinese photographer pictures is definitely worth of visiting. Pictures give nice highlight of living in real China outside of urban areas. I recommend this place. Not too big but peaceful, you can move with your own pace and piece.

Beautiful.museu., a bit on a smaller side than it looks from.outside and cafe was closed when we visited. Staff very friendly, found all information in English for us. Excellent toilet facilities and very interesting exhibitions.

The place is small and possibly does not provide very good other services than exhibitions (there are café and a tiny museum shop with books mainly in Finnish). However the exhibition and the way how it was organised and set up was excellent. The space is great with many sections providing a good experience I believe for both visitors and exhibitors.

Interactive exhibition. Both kids and adults enjoyed it a lot.

The paintings of Petri Ala-Maunus are great. Really a good exhibition , one painting is 8,50 m x 2,20 m. I love it. ...you should go there🔝

Great place, free for adults 😁

(Translated by Google) A nice place to spend a rainy day ☔️ Neat. There is a cafe where you can get salty and sweet snacks. The space is not very big compared to other indoor playgrounds. (Original) Mukava paikka viettää sadepäivää ☔️ Siisti. Paikassa kahvio josta saa suolaista ja makeaa välipalaa. Tila ei ole kovin suuri muihin sisäleikkipaikkoihin verraten.

(Translated by Google) A nice couple of hours of playtime with the tomtos 2.5 year old. The people of Namila are friendly and you can even follow a little girl in the equipment. The ball cannons in the back corner would require a little adjustment. One single cannon worked as it should. (Original) Mukavaa parin tunnin leikkiaikaa tommosen 2,5-vuotiaan kanssa. Namilan väki on ystävällistä ja laiteissa pääsee itsekkin pienen tytön perässä kulkemaan. Pallotykit takananurkassa vaatisi pientä laittoa. Yksi ainut tykki toimi niin kuin pitäisi.

(Translated by Google) Big hall, but somehow everything is small, there could be bigger play stands (Original) Iso halli, mut jotenkin pieniä kaikki, isommat leikkitelineet sais olla

(Translated by Google) In the toilet, the edges of the sink are broken and the paper holders are also broken. The play areas are already starting to look worn out due to heavy use. (Original) Vessassa lavuaarin reunoja rikki ja paperi telineet myöskin rikki. Leikki paikat alkaa näyttää jo että alkavat olemaan kovan kulutuksen myötä kulunneilta.

Mostly good and easy access. Some parts with some broken takes and some parts with a little too little o formation and signs where to walk. But if you have a map and common sense this is not a problem

i would say this is a good place to go walking Offers small and big walking trails for the beginners and advanced its very nice and clean offers a place to grill and camp offers free car parking near the entrance has toilets *do need your own toilet paper*

Lovely place. Savojärven kierros is a great one to take on a normal weekend. Though you should be careful with the buss schedules. On some weekdays the busses only go to tontinmäki, which might make it harder to plan during your summer holidays 👀

Good place for a light day hike with nice grilling area and clean toilets. But ugly camping area - tiny ground far away from lake and next to parking and somebody's private yard. I would not recommed to come here for camping with tent.

Super nice nature and walking track. Would be try to visit again on Winter😍🤩

There are 2 path on this park, one is around the "lake" the other is deep in the lands, both are using wood pieces to step in and walk, but forget about the second which is not open because of old/broken wood pieces (you can go but it is at your own risk cf pictures) So basically there is only one path, savojärven kierros, which means Tour around the lake Savo.. A tour about 5.5km, where you WONT SEE THE LAKE BEFORE 3 KM OF WALKING, instead of that you'll see the swamps, still walking on the wood pieces, firstly you'll find this path lovely and the wood pieces are poetic and funny! But after 3 km in the swamps... You won't I swear. You have to look at your feet every time (a few disappointing for a nature path you'll say) and jeeeez it hurts feet like hell. To end this, some wood pieces are also broken but nothing warns you... We don't recommand this place, ruissalo instead is a good place to see /walk through.

Really great place for hiking even with kids, especially the hike around the lake Savojarvi.Do bring in your own sausages and food and u can enjoy a great barbecue either at Kurjenpesä or Rantapiha. By the way best way to reach park is not what google map suggests. I would recommend to search following lat/long 60.743025,22.424462 there you can nicely park your car and then start towards Kurjenpesä and then cover the lake stretch in circle via Rantapiha.

If you’ve ever wanted to time-travel without a flux capacitor, Kuusisto Castle Ruins is the place. This historical gem offers a beautifully atmospheric glimpse into centuries past — crumbling stone walls, echoes of medieval life, and nature slowly reclaiming what once stood mighty. 🚗 Getting There: Park your vehicle about 500 meters away and enjoy a pleasant stroll along a gravel path. It’s an easy walk, even for us who aren’t built for marathons. Keep your eyes peeled — you’ll pass bat boxes hanging in the trees, adding a subtle Gothic touch to your journey. 🏰 On Site: The ruins themselves are impressive. You can clearly see old building techniques and imagine the hustle and clatter of life that once filled the castle walls. There’s a circular nature trail wrapping around the site, making it perfect for slow exploration or quiet contemplation. 🍽️ Amenities: There are picnic tables and benches if you’re bringing snacks — very medieval, minus the trenchers and mead. There’s also a restroom available, which is decidedly modern and appreciated. ♿ Accessibility Caveat: Heads-up: this place isn’t ideal for those with limited mobility. The terrain can be uneven, and the path may challenge anyone with dodgy knees or wheels under them. 🛡️ Respect the Past: It’s a protected ancient site. Keep pets leashed, remind the kids this isn’t a jungle gym, and let’s all agree not to chip off souvenirs. The area is under camera surveillance, so Big Brother is watching — or at least a local heritage officer with a security monitor. 📸 Verdict: Absolutely worth a visit. History buffs, romantics, and lovers of crumbling stone walls — don’t miss this one. Bring your imagination and maybe a sandwich.

Perfect place. The ruins are completely accessible and open to the public. It's free. I advise you to see the castle from the inside and walk outside around it. There is parking nearby, as well as plenty of outdoor tables with benches to sit and eat, and a pier. I recommend visiting. Total visit time: 20-30 minutes.

Cool place! I wish parking was closer though. The ruins were interesting with all the elevations, and the view from the top parts was great. The day was hot when we went there, so it would've been nice if the kiosk was open, but it wasn't. A nice, short sight-seeing trip. Our cat Muossi enjoyed it too. :D

Another wonderful site to visit in kaarina. Historic and at the same time breath-taking ruins of old kuusito bishop castle.

Tranquil place to have a walk or a picnic . There is a nature trail nearby, so both activities can be combined. To do that park the car before you reach the manor (There is a P sign on your left) and then follow the signs that will take you through the forest to the hill and down to the castle ruins.

Just some ruins, but if you research the place and its history it is quite interesting. And there was a rare indoor toilet in the castle, which was not usual at that time.

Free visit which includes few trails in the forrest and the old castle site that was definitely worth to visit. The site is clean and there is a cafe & bathrooms, so you can spend some time there if you want. The castle ruins history takes you back in to early 14th century.
