Nummela Sanatorium, Psychiatric hospital in Röykkä, Finland.

The Nummela Sanatorium stands as a three-story medical facility built in Art Nouveau style with large windows and symmetrical architectural elements throughout the structure.

Magnus Schjerfbeck designed this sanatorium in 1903 for tuberculosis treatment, which later transformed into a psychiatric hospital after 1932 until its closure in 1989.

The facility represents early 20th-century Finnish healthcare architecture, incorporating natural light and fresh air principles into medical building design.

Located near Finnish regional road 132 and national road 25, the former sanatorium maintains its position as a protected heritage structure in Nurmijärvi municipality.

Röykkä Invest Oy purchased the building in 2022 with plans to convert the former medical facility into a modern hotel development project.
