Möhköntie 209, 82980 Möhkö

Event location Möhkö Ironworks / Möhkö

After the production of iron had come to an end, the ironworks of Möhkö and its forests were transferred to the ownership of Enso-Gutzeit Ltd.  And so began Möhkö’s era of forests which lasted till the 1970s. The villagers made a living from the forests and Pytinki served as an office for the association of local management.

The Forested Möhkö exhibition showcases the traditions of the logging site, transporting logs by floating them along rivers and that of log cabins. It also reflects the changes in the everyday life of forestry as brought about by machines.

The Forested Möhkö exhibition is located at the old village shop, Ambari of the ironworks. It's located nearby Pytinki, the ironworks manor.
