Tytyri Mine Experience — Attraction in Helsinki sub-region

This is a tour of a limestone mine outside Lojha. The tour takes about an hour and you will be given a hard hat to wear. I recommend wearing warm clothes since the mine is always 8C/46F inside which feels cool by the end of the tour

You take the "world's fastest elevator" to the bottom and then a guide walks you through. The guide spoke Finnish which was bad for us since we don't speak Finnish but fortunately there were signs posted in English and Swedish that explained what we were seeing. At one point there was a 10 minute "light show" with music that I wish was 2 minutes, especially because the kids told me it was "boring" the entire time.

Overall this was interesting and fun, but not great for my kids. Also it was 49 Euro for the four of us which felt expensive to me. If you don't speak Finnish you should check ahead for English speaking tours. The guide and the person that checked us in were very nice...

Absolutely amazing place and so much bigger and better executed that I expected! A lot of information about the history of the mine and the lift down was an experience in itself. Definitely recommend for an unusual activity, especially with children. We were just 2 adults on out own but had do much fun😍 Loved the troll...so cute and got a hug from him so that made my day. The entrance fee of 14,50 euros is very reasonable considering what a unique experience you get. I've certainly never visited anywhere like it. Very friendly and helpful, knowledgeable staff and a nice little coffee and gift shop...

Exploring the Tytyri Mine is a very interesting and informative experience! Descending deep underground, you really get a sense of the scale and history of mining in Finland. The guided tour was engaging and full of fascinating details about both the industry and the unique geology of the area. The underground art installations and exhibitions added a creative twist that made the visit even more memorable. It’s a rare chance to see a working mine up close while also learning about Lohja’s cultural heritage. Highly recommend to anyone...
