4. Alvar Aalto"s Villa Kokkonen
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 34 reviews
Villa Kokkonen is a historic building designed by world-famous Finnish architect Alvar Aalto in 1967. The house is situated on top of the hill sloping down towards Lake Tuusula which is one of the most well-known areas in the cultural history of Finland. To have almost 10 000 square meters in the site really gives our visitors a marvelous possibility to study, reflect and/or just purely enjoy Alvar Aalto's architecture from every possible angle, from near and far. During our guided walking tours we allow our visitors to take exterior photos of the house and photos of the garden to serve their private, professional or commercial interests. Alvar Aalto's masterpieces include private houses such as Villa Mairea (Noormarkku), Aalto House (Helsinki) and Villa Kokkonen. Designed originally for music, Villa Kokkonen has been a wonderful architectural and cultural attraction since June 2009. Pianist Elina Viitaila and opera singer Antti A. Pesonen keep on working day and night as Villa Kokkonen's hosts, guides, artists and entrepreneurs. They were chosen as The Cultural Persons of the Year 2014 in the City of Järvenpää. Alvar Aalto's Villa Kokkonen is open for individual visitors and groups by reservation throughout the year. In addition to that, the attraction arranges - especially in June,July and August 2016 - several regular guided tours which are open to the public.

Visited Villa Kokkonen in winter in a group of friends. Antti in his full passion showed and explained us Villa Kokkonen from outside, the garden and inside, while Elina was preparing amazing typical Finnish food. Together they gave us a small concert filled with emotion and later we had the tasty food and could talk to Elina and Antti. These were wonderful, so diverse hours in a special place with so passionate Elina and Antti. Definetly recommend visiting Elina and Antti in Villa Kokkonen.
