About this experience

Mateli Museum Buildings are an interesting and unique attraction in Finland. Located in the small village of Mateli, the museum consists of three buildings, each with its own unique history. The main building is a former schoolhouse, built in the late 19th century, and is now home to a museum of local history.

The second building is a former granary, which now houses a collection of traditional tools and artifacts from the area. Finally, the third building is a former parish house, which now houses a collection of old photographs and documents. Visitors to the museum can explore the buildings and learn about the history of the area.

There is also a café on-site, serving traditional Finnish food and drinks. The museum is open year-round and is a great place to visit for those interested in learning more about the history of the area.
