Fantastic architecture!
One of the nicest museums in jyvaskyla. Have nice cool and historical stuff. The technology displayed to make the rock painting is also fun and unique. Overall yu will feel, yu have seen something unique and would definitely appreciate the finnish heritage and some prespective based art showed in the museum.

It was interesting, but not everything was translated to English
Very good museum, although not quite on the level of the National Museum of Finland in Helsinki. Be warned that many of the informational panels are only in Finnish and not in English – There’s a translated version in book form available in the shop, but it costs €12, which is far too steep to pay in addition to the price of admission
A house of treasures! 4 floors and I only made it through 2 floors in two hours. So much to reflect upon! 10 Stars.
It is so exciting and helpful for me
