About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- varonti0 contributionsSecond time in MänttäThis was our second visit to Mänttä and these beautiful museums! Today we enjoyed both Pääkonttori and Kartano. Riiko Sakkinen's Los Moimois was really powerful, even raw somehow. It raised a lot of questions and made me think. Exhibitions in Kartano were impressive too. The masks spoke with so many words and languages! Thank you!Written 1 August 2024

- timol2090 contributionsFine museums in the woodsThe Gösta museum had a great Banksy exhibition in summwer 2021. The exhibits, the flow and the information boards opened the world, thinking and excellent execution of Banksy's work in an exciting way. The old manor building exhibits of the finest Finnish classical paintings is outstanding. The architecture and surroundings are very beautiful and functional.Written 20 September 2021
- Na T0 contributionsAn art museum in the forestsAn art museum in the middle of “forest Finland” by a lake, with an absolutely beautiful new wing and a functional old wing (former Serlachius mansion). The permanent collection is well worth seeing and so was the also the Banksy exhibition, especially the video connecting the art to its surroundings. The museum is surrounded by a colourful garden and beautiful park, by a lake.Written 13 August 2021

- rist0g0 contributionsGösta by Serlachius is well worth visitingGösta by Serlachius is definitely worth visiting and seeing. The collections and the changing exhibitions are very good and the new pavilion exceptionally well designed. Restaurant Gösta serves food comparable to just about any in Europe.Written 28 February 2021
- Päivi S0 contributionsHow about the Future, mut To seeThe house architectur was beautiful. The movie about Serlachius Art history was interesting. Petri Eskelinen Toimintamuisti with living videoscreens was exellent. Nanna Hänninen How about the Future, Understanding the Big Picture was something New.Written 14 October 2020
- bl1ng0 contributionsA must day-trip for art, food & nature loversInteresting exhibitions, excellent restaurant Gösta and wonderful mansion park by the lake. Would probably be best to stay overnight and e.g. rent a bike to explore the surroundings also :)Written 4 August 2020
- Elina S0 contributionsMixed qualityA traditional art museum with several exhibitions of mixed quality. Lovely park and a small island to take a stroll if you are visiting at summer time.Written 13 August 2019
- Xtrttvllr0 contributionsA great museumA kind of a hidden gem - you wouldnt expect such a small place house such a rich collection. Given ties to industrial history and papermills, its safe to say this museum is much better funded and curated than most museums in relatively remote small villages. You can catch samples from Finnish masters (like Gallen-Kallela, Edefelt and Schjerfbeck) and also contemporary art in more frequently changing exhibitions. Beautifull location is a bonus. You should also see their other museum, i think one ticket gives you entrance to both. Sadly we were short on time, so we had to do with just this little piece of magic.Written 29 July 2019

Amazing exhibition of Banksy and lovely dinner afterwards. We had pre booked tickets and we arrived just before our scheduled entrance. As they let only a few visitors inside we felt safe during our visit. And because of less audience there was a lot of space to concentrate on the exhibition.

We arranged an exclusive private tour for the museum for oir group, followed by super delicious three course meal at restaurant Gösta. I highly recommend this museum and especially this restaurant. It is hard to imagine that in a small municipality of Mänttä-Vilppula, you can find a restaurant of this scale. You won’t be disappointed!

A great visit to see Banksy visual revolution plus the regular exhibition at Gösta Museum. A well organized exhibition and museum, though crowded in July.
Luckily we had a reservation at 10 am.
We also enjoyed very much the three-course special lunch menu served in the beautiful garden.

One of the most interesting museum buildings in Finland. Great combination of old and new architecture. Enjoyable surroundings with well maintained garden and delightful piece of 'wilderness'.
Good exhibitions.
Superb service, I especially liked easy connection from Tampere with Serlachius-buss, which is convenient for visitors travelling without car.

... Since it was our third time having a week off not far from Mänttä, it almost felt a "compulsory" part of the week to visit.
This year, the "Masks" exhibition was maybe not the most impressive so far. But the permanent exhibition is great - don't just run through!
The surrounding area is lovely and worth visiting as such.

Taidemuseo Gösta tarjoilee tänä kesän mielenkiintoisen kattauksen italialaista nykytaidetta sekä tietysti rakastettuja suomalaisen taiteen kultakauden klassikkoja Simbergiltä, Schjerfbeckiltä, Gallen-Kallelalta, Edelfeltiltä jne. Nykytaiteen näyttelyssä myös suomalaisia taiteilijoita.
Itsenäni puhutteli eniten italialaisen Federico Solmin oivaltavat videot mm. Garibaldista ja Kolumbuksesta sekä mielenkiitoiset lyhytelokuvat. Klassikkonäyttelyssä myös uusia ripustuksia. Klassikkojen rakennuksen viinikellari on näkemisen arvoinen. Kaiken kaikkiaan suosittelen lämpimästi vähintään päivän kesäretkeä Mänttään jo pelkästään italialaisten Onnea etsimässä -näyttelyn takia. Eniten saat irti, kun jäät Mänttään yöksi, ja käyt Göstassa ja Gustafissa eri päivinä. Museon sijainti järven rannalla sekä kauniisti hoidettu miljöö ja huikean hyvää ruokaa tarjoilevat Gösta-ravintola täydentävät loistavasti taide-elämyksen. Älä unohda myöskään taidemuseo Gustafia.
Museo on auki ympäri vuoden ja kesäaikaan 1.6.–31.8. joka päivä klo 10–18. Yhteislippu aikuisille molempiin museoihin €10. Alennuksia eläkeläisille ja opiskelijoille sekä vapaa sisäänpääsy mm. alle 18-vuotiaille.
This summer, the Gösta Art Museum serves an interesting setting of Italian contemporary art as well as the beloved classics of the golden age of Finnish art. The exhibition of contemporary art also includes Finnish artists. I myself liked the most the insightful videos of the Italian Federico Solmi as well as interesting short films. The wine cellar in the classic building is worth a visit. The Italian The Quest for Happiness exhibition itself is a good reason to go to Mänttä.
The museum's location by the lake, as well as its beautiful milieu and stunningly good food in the Gösta restaurant make a great addition to the art experience. Remember to visit also the art museum Gustaf.
The museum is open all year round and during the summer from 1 June to 31 August. every day from 10 am to 6 pm. Joint ticket for adults to both museums € 10. Discounts for seniors and students as well as free admission e.g. under 18 years of age.
All in all, I warmly recommend at least a day's summer trip to Mänttä and you get the most out when you stay in Mänttä for the night and visit Gösta and Gustaf on different days.

Hei!
Kiitos paljon monipuolisesta ja mainiosta palautteesta! Mukava kuulla, että Onnea etsimässä – Italian nykytaidetta -näyttelystä on löytynyt kiinnostavia teoksia.
Näkemistä Göstassa ja Gustafissa tosiaan riittää, joten yöksi jääminen on oivallinen vinkki, mikäli näyttelyihin haluaa syventyä rauhassa. Lämpimästi tervetuloa uudelleen!
Terveisin, Suvi Rauhala
