Päivärinne Sanatorium, Hospital and cultural heritage site in Muhos, Finland.

The sanatorium building features multiple patient wings, communal rooms, and large windows integrated into a functionalist architectural design from 1932.

Construction began in spring 1930 after 52 municipalities formed a Building Committee to address the need for modern tuberculosis treatment facilities.

The sanatorium exemplifies Finnish healthcare architecture with its thoughtful design incorporating natural light, airflow, and spaces for patient recovery.

The facility contained 286 patient beds and operated on a 327-hectare estate that included farm buildings producing food for patients and staff.

Furniture manufacturers collaborated with architects to create specialized items designed specifically for tuberculosis patients within the sanatorium.
