Why visit

The trackmaster's dwelling at Leppäkoski is one of the oldest railway buildings in our country and the only one of its kind left — a house where cultural history lives in an everyday timber wall.

Look for: Remember that this house was the childhood home of the actress Ida Aalberg — it lies a little south of the station building.
