Huopalahti railway station

Why visit

The handsome trees of Huopalahti's station park set the station apart from the city around it, and the former public park has become a sheltered yard beside the early years of the Turku railway.

Look for: Notice the two-storey Jugend station building from the early 1920s; the other buildings are older, from the construction of the Turku line in 1900–03.
