Things to see and do Lohja

Mining began in 1897 in Lohja. To visit this authentic limestone mine still in operation, you descend 80 m underground by funicular - guided tour only. You will learn all about the living conditions of the miners and their working methods. Sound and light show in an underground quarry. Don't forget to cover up because the visit lasts 1h30 and the temperature in the mine is 8 degrees. Instructive and entertaining: we recommend it!

This beautifully painted church was founded in the early 14th century. A few medieval wooden sculptures have survived through the ages, such as that of the patron saint of the town of Saint-Laurent (15th century). Note the copper candelabra from the 17th and 18th centuries. The mortuary chapel near the belfry dates from 1824. Beautiful exterior facades in exposed stone. Inside, beautiful limewash paintings dating from the time of Bishop Arvid Kurki (1510-1522).
