Further information
Vehkaniemi has once, in the middle of the 20th century, been an exemplary cattle breeding farm. According to contemporaries, the rather large Stone Barn represented the high tech of its time, which visitors came to see even further afield. The wooden upper floor and wooden structures were destroyed in a fire in the winter of 1940, in the same year as Finland was waging a winter war against Russia and at the same time facing unusually severe frosts. But the building was then repaired and rebuilt.
The current owner of the farm, the daughter of the house, is an architect and she has since 2009, when the farm became his property, summer after summer developed the whole courtyard into a unique visiting destination. Traces of the original use have been carefully preserved to recall ancient times and life with their many stories.
