The Worker Housing Museum’s summer season starts 4 May 2022.

The Worker Housing Museum and the Burgher’s House will open for the summer season on Wednesday 4 May 2022. The Helsinki City Museum’s seasonal museums will stay open until Sunday 2 October.

The Worker Housing Museum’s small stove rooms in Alppila let you take a peek into the history of everyday life in Helsinki. The traditional cooking stoves, washstands and extendable beds of the homes represent the life of working class families at different points of the 20th century. The Burgher’s House is the oldest wooden building remaining in its original location in the inner city. The building gives you an opportunity to understand what everyday life and living in the home of a minor official was like in Kruununhaka in the 1860s and 1870s.

Admission is free to the both museums. Please maintain a safe distance in the museum’s premises. See you there!
