Luostarinmaen Kasityolaismuseo features craftworks from pre-industrial times in an 18th-century open-air museum. When the Great Fire of 1827 destroyed 75 percent of the town, this area remained unharmed. Today you can wander through wooden homes decorated by colorful doors, windows, and chimneys. Note the grass on the roofs of some, while others feature barns and wooden stairs that lead to small attics. Inside the houses, you'll see old tools, furniture, and textiles. Throughout the site, artisans produce merchandise that you can purchase. To visit Luostarinmaen Kasityolaismuseo and other attractions in Turku, use our Turku trip maker website.

  • Well done and well preserved. We spent about 2 hours here and went in every house. Really enjoying seeing and learning about the different crafts.

  • This museum has lots of stories to tell! The collection of 14 houses (each with several rooms and entrances) captures the life of many people who actually lived in this area in the 19th and 20th...

  • Interesting area, the only one that was saved in the big fire a long time ago. Very interesting to see how people used to live and work in the past.
