Haminalahden kartano

Haminalahden kartano is a wooden manor house near Lake Kallavesi built with traditional Finnish architectural features from the mid-19th century. The property includes gardens and pathways that connect the building to the surrounding landscape.

The manor was built in 1850 when Finnish architects combined regional building techniques with classical design principles. This era shaped the appearance of many estates in the region and shows how the country's architecture developed during that period.

The house and its grounds show how Finnish estates were woven into the landscape and shaped the daily lives of those who lived there. The layout of rooms and outdoor spaces reflects the social order that such places represented in the 19th century.

The manor is easily reached by public transportation from central Kuopio, and guided tours help you understand the house and its setting. Wearing comfortable shoes is advisable since exploring the gardens and grounds involves some walking.

The property is the starting point for a 3.1-kilometer cultural trail marked with grouse symbols along the way. The path leads to places that inspired local artists and influenced contemporary creative work in the region.
