Lahti Historical Museum will open its doors on June 6th, 2024.
Modern content is being built inside the walls of the old bourgeois home – exhibitions, events and activities. The journey towards the new starts with this website.
A Favourable place -permanent exhibition
The new main exhibition, "A Favourable place," delves into the everyday history of Päijät-Häme from the post-ice age era to the present day. In the exhibition, the historical manor setting has incorporated a digital and immersive exhibition experience, offering experiences of identification for the whole family, with special attention to expert insights.
Museum closed for renovation
The manor renovation has been completed, and with that, the Manor Park has also been renovated. The Aino statue and the historically faithful courtyard are once again open for everyone to admire.
History of Lahti Manor
The Lahti Historical Museum is located in the former Lahti Manor. The rose-coloured house was built in 1898 as a home of an important family in a small town, the Fellmans. After the family, the building has been used by a day-care centre and a school. Since 1968, the building has housed a museum showcasing the cultural history of Lahti and the Päijät-Häme region.
