Port of Kuopio, Inland port and cultural heritage site in Kuopio, Finland

The Port of Kuopio includes customs buildings, warehouses, a port office, and multiple quays along the shore of Lake Kallavesi.

The port expanded after the creation of the Saimaa Canal in 1854, leading to extensive land reclamation and construction of maritime facilities.

The red-brick mill buildings from the 1880s and wooden houses along Satamakatu represent the industrial and architectural evolution of Kuopio.

The port area connects to Satamapuisto Park, offering recreational spaces and hosting regular events including wine festivals and fish markets.

During winter months, the frozen Lake Kallavesi transforms into a natural ice rink where the Finland Ice Marathon takes place.
