About
A Turku sauna house running since 1926, in the Kurjenmäki bath building since 1981 and in one family throughout. The public sauna opens on Friday afternoons, with separate men's and women's sides and oil-fired stoves. Cupping, peat and other traditional treatments are booked separately.
Good to know
- A historic sauna with heritage worth the trip on its own, whether the building, the tradition, or both.
- Urban venue: it sits inside the city rather than at a coast or lake. A session fits into a day in town.
- Pairs the sauna with spa services like massage or a scrub, so a session can sit inside a wider visit.
- Bookable as a private session: rent the room for your group rather than sharing with strangers.
- Women-only sauna: the venue has a women's side or room, or runs set women-only sessions.
