Finnish Ice Hockey Museum, Sports museum and hall of fame in Tampere, Finland.
The Finnish Ice Hockey Museum displays photographs, trophies, uniforms, and equipment that document the sport's evolution across generations. The collection preserves both the technical and human dimensions of ice hockey's growth from its origins to today.
The museum was founded in 1979 and later relocated from Tampere Ice Stadium to Museum Centre Vapriikki. This move allowed for improved preservation and presentation of Finnish ice hockey heritage in a more central location.
The museum honors exceptional players, coaches, and officials through the Finnish Ice Hockey Lion title, recognizing their contributions to the sport. This award reflects how deeply the nation values those who shaped its ice hockey identity.
The venue features interactive simulators where visitors can test their skills as a goaltender and shooter. Plan to spend time engaging with these hands-on activities alongside exploring the displayed collections.
The exhibition displays trophies from international championships that mark Finland's victories on the world stage. These objects represent pivotal moments in the nation's sporting achievements.
