Valkeakoski, Industrial town in Pirkanmaa region, Finland.

Valkeakoski spans across 372 square kilometers, with lakes and waterways connecting the urban center to natural landscapes through multiple channels.

The region's first paper mill, constructed in 1873, initiated industrial development following the opening of the Valkeakoski channel in 1869.

The National Football Museum preserves Finland's soccer heritage while the Työväen Musiikkitapahtuma festival celebrates regional music traditions each summer.

Located 35 kilometers from Tampere and 150 kilometers from Helsinki, Valkeakoski offers direct road connections to major Finnish cities.

The convergence of Mallasvesi and Vanajavesi lakes at Valkeakoski creates a natural water junction that supports both industrial and recreational activities.
