Serlachius Museum Gösta, Art museum in Mänttä-Vilppula, Finland.
Serlachius Museum Gösta occupies a manor house with a contemporary pavilion addition, providing roughly 1500 square meters of gallery space near Lake Melasjärvi. The exhibitions span multiple rooms arranged to guide visitors through different collections and presentations.
Founded in 1945, the museum opened as Finland's seventh art museum in the first floor of a manor house designed by Jarl Eklund. This moment marked an important step in establishing the country's artistic infrastructure.
The collection spans Finnish art and European masterworks, with rotating contemporary exhibitions that introduce visitors to different artistic perspectives across multiple gallery spaces.
The grounds are easily accessible with on-site amenities including a shop and restaurant overlooking the lake. Visitors should allow time to explore the outdoor areas, as artworks are displayed beyond the main building.
The grounds feature sculptures by Finnish artist Harry Kivijärvi, with additional artworks displayed on Taavetinsaari Island accessible by bridge. This scattered arrangement transforms the visit into an outdoor exploration experience beyond the main building.
