Cable Factory

The Cable Factory spans 56,000 square meters across three interconnected buildings, featuring studios, museums, galleries, and performance spaces in Helsinki's industrial district.

The structure, designed by architect Wäinö Gustaf Palmqvist, operated as a cable manufacturing facility from 1943 until 1987 under Nokia Corporation's predecessor companies.

Three permanent museums reside within the complex: the Finnish Museum of Photography, Theatre Museum, and Hotel and Restaurant Museum, alongside numerous artist studios.

The cultural center maintains regular operating hours from Monday through Sunday, with specific exhibition areas requiring separate admission fees for entry.

The Glass Courtyard serves as the central information hub, housing a factory shop and providing ticket services for the various events held throughout the complex.
