www.taidekaupunki.fi

At the end of the 19th century, the legend of the Finnish forest industry, G. A. Serlachius, lifted the villages of Mänttä and

Filppula on to the world map with his paper products. Since then, for over hundred years, we have received visitors from all over the world on the estates of Serlachius. Our services have delighted both kings and honorary councils, as they still do.

Let us take care of you and your companions with the same courtesy and hospitality we offer to all our honourable guests.

We want to offer the best quality service in the country: touching moments with the national art treasures, magnificent

architecture, memorable adventures on lakes and in forests, delicacies from the best cooks, and sweet, peaceful dreams.

Welcome to be our guest!

Serlachius Museum Gösta

In 1935, the new home of the industrialist Gösta Serlachius, the

Joenniemi Manor, was completed. In 2014, beside the manor rose a

modern, impressive wooden pavilion. Together, these two form one of

the most significant art museums of the country, Serlachius Museum

Gösta. The museum presents every year several eloquent exhibitions:

big names of the contemporary art and new openings, masters from

the Golden Age of Finnish art.

For groups, the Art Museum is a memorable attraction full of art, history

and architecture. For meetings and banquets, it offers the services

of top chefs (see Restaurant Gösta) and versatile premises: elegant

Kivijärvi hall, fresh conference room Peda, rustic Autereen tupa hut,

dining hall of Restaurant Gösta with a view, and an atmospheric wine

cellar. We can offer you high quality additional programmes in the

exhibitions and in the park, on the island, and on the lake.

Organized since 1993, Mänttä Art Festival is the summer’s most

significant showcase of contemporary art in Finland. Every year

from June to August, it presents the most topical visual art.

The theme, artists and exhibition architecture are decided by a

curator. The association organizing the festival, Mänttä friends of

art, chooses a new curator for each year. The main exhibition area

is once again Pekilo, a former fodder factory in the centre of the

town of Mänttä, in the factory milieu.

Make a reservation for your group and order a guided tour! We

will tailor a suitable tour for you in our exhibition. In Pekilo, the

threshold to the world of contemporary art is low.
