Located in Tampere, less than 2 hours from Helsinki, it offers an extraordinary experience that will captivate children and adults alike, making it an ideal family destination.
At the heart of the museum is a spectacular five-story, two-meter-high blue Moomin House, packed with intricate details and hidden secrets. Children will be delighted exploring this miniature world, discovering tiny rooms, and imagining the Moomin family’s daily adventures.
The museum’s layout follows the progression of Jansson’s Moomin books, with each book represented by a large cover that showcases related illustrations, paintings, and three-dimensional scenes. Interactive digital displays bring the stories to life, presenting character galleries and snippets of Moomin tales in multiple languages.
One of the museum’s most engaging features is a workshop where children can be creative and experiment with various art activities. The workshops change regularly, offering everything from visual arts to craft projects, ensuring that each visit can be a unique experience.
