Suolahti Old Station

The area illustrates the attempt to connect inland waters by rail to the sea coasts and thus to Europe at the end of the 19th century. The Old Station area and port form a valuable destination for those interested in transport and cultural history. The station building designed by architect Bruno Granholm with its railway yards, locomotives, and railway buildings was completed as soon as railway traffic began in 1898.

In the area, you will also find the unique Keitele Museum, where you can explore steam trains, railcars and the history of railways outdoors. If you are hungry for nostalgia, there is the Perinnetelakka with historical steam boats. In the summer time, you can enjoy Restaurant Majakka's dishes with a view. Also check out the old rail station building and Café Möljä!
