Riilahti Mansion

Riilahti Mansion is a manor house from 1806 set within extensive grounds that include outbuildings and farm structures across the property. The landscape garden combines orderly pathways with groves of trees and open spaces, creating distinct zones as you move through the estate.

The property was first recorded in 1437 as a settlement, though the main building took its current form around 1806. The Aminoff family acquired it in 1725 and shaped its development into the estate visitors see today.

The property became a meeting point for influential families and thinkers in the 1800s, with the layout and furnishings reflecting how these communities spent their time together. The rooms tell a story of how the educated elite lived and entertained in this region.

Access to the property works best with advance planning, as visits are arranged by appointment rather than drop-in. The grounds are best explored on foot, and pathways vary in their ease of access depending on where you want to go.

European beech trees grow naturally on the grounds in one of their few locations outside southern regions, making the forest here botanically notable. These rare trees thrive at the northern edge of where such species normally occur.
