Guesthouse Kirjakkalan Ruukkikylä (Salo, Finland)

The history of Kirjakkala began in 1686 when the ironworks were built. They were the 11th ironworks in Finland. The old ironworks mansion and three large log buildings are located in a beautiful grove with tall oaks and lindens providing shade and the river that flows across the yard creates a soothing atmosphere. You can almost smell the cigar of an old factory owner in the park. The ironworks are located in the Teijo national park by the hiking trails and on the shore of lake Hamarijärvi, one kilometer from the sea. A sauna and meeting facilities are available. The lake shore is available to rent boats, kayaks and canoes. In winter, the property offers a tour skating and cross-country skiing. The location is 125 km from Helsinki via the motorway and 15 minutes from Salo town.
