When you get off the train at Riihimäki railway station and head to the other side of the station building, you arrive at a magnificent historic area with wooden houses. The Rautatienpuisto area was originally built as a residential area for railway workers, the oldest of the buildings being the master builder’s house from 1857. The buildings in the area were given protected status in 1993 due to their cultural and historical value.
