Gallen-Kallela Museum

The beautiful surroundings and unique architecture of the Gallen-Kallela Museum provide a fine setting for a museum visit. Designed and built by the artist Akseli Gallen-Kallela (1865-1931), the castle-like Tarvaspää studio and residence was opened to the public in 1961 as the Gallen-Kallela Museum. The museum's temporary exhibitions present the art and life of Gallen-Kallela and his contemporaries and present-day works of contemporary art. The museum provides also a wide range of activities and events and serves as a centre for information on Akseli Gallen-Kallela.

Museum shop and café-restaurant.

The museum will close for renovation on 16 September, 2024. The estimated duration of the renovation is about 3-5 months.
