Frenckell paper mill, Paper factory in Tampere, Finland.

The Frenckell paper mill stands beside the Tammerkoski rapids, featuring red brick buildings and a prominent chimney that marks the industrial landscape.

Abraham Häggman founded this paper manufacturing facility in 1762, establishing one of the earliest industrial operations in the Tampere region.

The mill buildings now house restaurants and shops, representing the transformation of industrial structures into modern commercial spaces in Finland.

Visitors can reach the Frenckell area by walking from Tampere Central Station, with the complex located near the central market square.

The factory's tall brick chimney from 1870 remains standing as a reference point in Tampere's cityscape, marking two centuries of paper production history.
