Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Lahti has grown in the last hundred years from a small township to a remarkable summer and winter attraction. The Lahti Historical Museum shows why and when the growth has happened.

This small museum carries changing exhibitions as well as permanent ones. Not only the history of Lahti but also from Viipuri. Very helpful personnel!

Lahden historiallinen museo (Lahti Historical Museum) is situated in Lahti Manor, which was built in 1897-1898. This renovated museum has three floors: 1) the salon and the main exhibition of the history of Lahti (11,000 years), 2) the temporary exhibition and 3) the armoury. In my opinion especially the main exhibition is very interesting. Remember to visit the museum shop, too. They have some very interesting products: manor honey, manor berry jam, manor princess jam, Wilhelmiina biscuits, tableware products etc.

The museum is located in small park few steps away from bus station. The nice building on
stroyeno in the depth of park.
According to the contents the museum is interesting first of all to residents of Finland, however we with interest studied the sections devoted to a development of the city, household aspects of life and a heavy fire in Lahti.
The separate mention is deserved by interactive registration of an exposition of the museum. It is very convenient for visitors, is modern and is evident. Time spent in the museum between train and bus was spent not for nothing.
