Art Museum Ateneum

The Ateneum Art Museum contains more than 20,000 pieces of art, including paintings, sculptures, prints, and drawings from the 1750s to the 1950s.

The museum building, designed by architect Theodor Höijer and completed in 1887, opened its art collections to the public on October 13, 1888.

The museum displays works by Finnish masters Akseli Gallen-Kallela, Albert Edelfelt, and international artists like Vincent van Gogh in its permanent collection.

The museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Friday between 10 AM and 8 PM, while weekend hours run from 10 AM to 5 PM.

The Ateneum became the first museum in the world to acquire a Van Gogh painting when Street in Auvers-sur-Oise arrived in 1903.
