An open-air museum of Finnish immigrants who arrived in the area from 1590 to the 1700s. By slash-and-burn farming they could put the deep forests to good use, so the immigration from the eastern part of the realm was encouraged by the Crown. Later this lifestyle got in conflict with the ironworks' need for firewood and the immigration ceased, but the settlers, the Forest Finns ( skogsfinnar ) remained, and their heritage can be seen even today.
