Herrainmäki, Public park in Tampella district, Tampere, Finland.

The rocky hill of Herrainmäki stands as the highest point in downtown Tampere, featuring a collection of five historical buildings and traditional garden landscapes.

The area served as a residential zone for Tampella factory management, with buildings constructed between 1860 and 1963, including the notable Villa Ryselin and Villa Lavonius.

The park contains five protected buildings that represent different architectural periods, from 19th-century designs to mid-20th-century construction methods.

Visitors can access the hill via stairs from Pellavantori, with the nature trail extending 2.6 kilometers through the area and connecting to Tammerkoski Beach.

The park maintains its original apple trees and garden plants from former residential properties, creating a natural museum of historical vegetation patterns.
