Great place with lots of information on forestry, Finland’s largest industry. Could have spent a lot longer here but we were limited on time. Highly recommend!

Aseman Taidelaituri

Reviewed By 225arifromfinland - Huacachina, Peru

Lusto railway station dates back to more than hundred years. The building and especially its interior is worth seeing, a beautiful example of Finnish wooden architecture. Nowadays the restored building is owned by art collectors and in summertime there are exhibitions of Finnish contemporary art. Free entry. Open every day until September first. Beautiful garden and an old-style kiosk. Very warmly recommended. There is a train stop in front of the building so it's easy to reach even for travellers without car.
