Jollaksen kartano

Jollaksen kartano is a manor estate in Helsinki featuring a main building constructed in 1919 and garden areas laid out in the early 1920s. The property sits on elevated ground and displays typical features of Finnish residential architecture from that period.

The property was originally part of a larger estate but became a separate holding in 1798. The current main building was constructed in 1919 by architects Toivo Tikkanen and Karl Malmstrom.

The garden design by landscape architect Paul Olsson in 1920 shows how nature and building design work together in a Finnish manor setting. The planted areas and their arrangement still shape how the place feels today.

The estate sits in a residential neighborhood and is accessible by public transport. Parts of the grounds may have limited access, so check ahead when planning a visit.

Over time the building passed through different hands, from parish clergy to railway station staff. This changing history of use is still visible in how the place is arranged and what remains inside.
