The Olavi Lanu sculpture park is situated within Kariniemi park, in the midst of nature. Sculptures are cast in concrete and they are placed in the forest as natural elements. These sculptures of the park form a coherent whole of environmental art. The heaviest sculpture weights 37 metric tons. Another versions of some sculptures have been seen at the Venice Biennale and in an art center in Louisiana in the United States. Lanupuisto is open 24/7 and there isn't any admission fee. So it is totally free to visit there. There are also beautiful and relaxing sitting places in the park.

Lanupuisto is a great park with wide roads to walk on and to enjoy the peaceful forests and Lanu's artwork. The stories behind the statues are in both English and Finnish, which our international friends were happy to discover.
