Kauhava, Municipality in Southern Ostrobothnia, Finland.

The city of Kauhava extends across the fertile landscapes of Southern Ostrobothnia, positioned between the major centers of Seinäjoki, Vaasa, and Kokkola.

The consolidation of Alahärmä, Kauhava, Kortesjärvi, and Ylihärmä municipalities in 2009 formed the current configuration of Kauhava, expanding its territorial reach.

Kauhava maintains its reputation as a center for traditional knife making, with the Iisakki Järvenpää knife factory representing generations of Finnish craftsmanship.

The city provides convenient transportation access through Highway 19, Main Road 63, and two train stations, including the seasonal Härmä station.

PowerPark, located within Kauhava's boundaries, receives 400,000 visitors annually, establishing itself as a primary entertainment destination in Southern Ostrobothnia.
