Must-see attractions

Turkansaaren Ulkomuseo

　　Set across two river islands on the scenic Oulujoki, this open-air museum is a collection of traditional wooden buildings, from loggers’ cabins to stables, and includes a handsome farmhouse. The 1694 church is an original from this former trading settlement. A working tar pit comes to the fore during Tar-Burning...

Merimiehen Kotimuseo

　　This house-museum on Pikisaari belonged to a local sailor. Built in 1737, it is the oldest house in Oulu and was transferred here from the city centre in 1983. The wallpaper and extendable bed are typical of 19th-century Finnish homes. Following renovations, it's expected to reopen in mid-2018. ...

Pohjois Pohjanmaan Museo

　　The Museum of Northern Ostrobothnia in the city park has almost too much information to take in at first bite. It covers the earliest habitation of the region through to the 20th century, including plenty of coverage of the tar trade. Cameras allow you to zoom in on the impressive...

Oulun Tuomiokirkko

　　Oulu’s imposing cathedral was built in 1777, but then came the great fire of 1822, which severely damaged the structure. Prolific architect CL Engel rebuilt it in Empire style, adding a dome and Renaissance-style vaulting, which impart a powerful airiness to the fairly unadorned interior. ...

　　Oulu has one of Finland's liveliest market squares, and its position at the waterfront makes it all the more appealing. The square is bordered by several old wooden storehouses now serving as restaurants, bars and craft shops. The squat Toripolliisi statue, a humorous representation of the local police, is a...

　　This huge, excellent science museum can occupy kids for the best part of a day with a giant, 35m-high IMAX screen, hands-on interactive exhibits exploring planets and the human body, and an observation tower. An annually changing mega-exhibition is the focal point. Opening hours fluctuate; check the online calendar. ...
