Mohko Ironworks Museum

Finland’s easternmost village, Möhkö, is situated next to Koitajoki River in Ilomantsi. The entire village was originally founded around one of Finland’s largest lake iron ore ironworks. Möhkö’s unique cultural environment includes buildings, the remnants of industrial history, memories of war history, non-indigenous plants brought in by the war and beautiful nature. The ironworks also has a unique restored canal system restored. There is the cafe, Möhkön Manta, situated in the old residential barge. Lemmenpolku (Path of Love) meanders on the vast compounds of the ironworks. The path leads travellers to Lotinankoski Rapids and Möhkö’s Aboretum.
