We’re also part of Kontiolahti’s Sauna World!

The sauna at the Kotiseu­tu­keskus local heritage centre is an excel­lent choice for meetings, recrea­tional events or a sauna experience! The sauna is large enough for 8–12 people, and we can arrange to provide an evening snack or dinner in the adjoi­ning room.

The sauna is a log building in the yard of the local heritage centre, and it was built accor­ding to the model of a sauna located in Uilo in the village of Jakokoski. It takes several hours to heat this histo­rical sauna, but once it reaches the right tempe­ra­ture the warmth will last until the next morning. The benches are located high up in the sauna, and water is poured over the rocks through a pipe.
