Bomba House, Karelian cultural center in Nurmes, Finland
The Bomba House features traditional Karelian architecture with long round logs and contains 27 rooms within its wooden structure.
Built in 1978, this building replicates a house constructed in 1855 by Yegor Bombin in Suojärvi, which is now part of Russian Karelia.
The center maintains Karelian heritage through its architecture, restaurant serving regional dishes, and regular exhibitions of traditional craftsmanship.
Visitors can access the house from Friday to Sunday between 11 AM and 4 PM, with accommodations available at the adjacent Break Sokos Hotel.
The building design includes specific architectural elements that allowed horses to ride directly into the structure, reflecting historical Karelian construction methods.
