>Hidden beneath the town of Lohja, Tytyri Mine Experience takes visitors on an unforgettable underground adventure, combining history, industry, art, and technology. Located in a century-old limestone mine still in operation today, this unique destination offers a glimpse into Finland’s rich mining heritage while showcasing modern innovations.
Descend nearly 100 meters underground in Finland’s fastest elevator, developed by KONE, and step into a world where darkness and light blend to create an awe-inspiring experience. Visitors can explore the geological and mining history exhibition, enjoy rotating art installations, and visit a family-friendly themed cave designed for younger adventurers.

Guided tours take guests through the mine’s vast tunnel network, covering approximately one kilometer of gravel-covered pathways. The underground temperature remains at a steady +8°C, so warm clothing and sturdy shoes are recommended. After the tour, visitors can enjoy refreshments at the on-site café or browse for unique souvenirs.
