About this site
Porvoo station area is situated in a scenically attractive location along the Porvoonjoki river, opposite Porvoo Castle Hill and the old town. In addition to the station building, the area includes a residential area along the riverbank and a depot area south of the railway. The station area is along the old Helsinki-Hämeenlinna road. The station building houses the Eastern Uusimaa Building Information Centre and a shop for old building materials. The goods warehouse contains a shop and a small café. The residential buildings are in private ownership. The use and planning of the railway area has been impeded by a contaminated soil layer, which has been investigated on multiple occasions.
