Beauty and wellness Tampere

A historic sauna, built in 1929, near Lake Näsijärvi. It's famous in winter for swimming in the icy water just after the sauna: you'll see Finns in bathing suits coming out of the sauna, still steaming, walking barefoot and then taking a leisurely swim in the frozen lake. If you're brave (or daredevil) you can try it too! In summer, you can sunbathe on the nearby beach and swim in the lake. And for those not used to saunas, there are three with different heat levels.

Opened in 1906, it is Finland's oldest public sauna with its traditional smoke heating, small café and massage service offering a choice of classic, sports and suction cup massages by appointment. It was built at the beginning of the 20th century by Hermanni and Maria Lahtinen. Today it belongs to the city of Tampere. On site, do not hesitate to ask the staff for advice if you are not a sauna regular, the staff is very friendly and affordable. Discounts for children.

In this waterside sauna-restaurant, two different atmospheres await you, depending on your mood: the "old-fashioned" wood-heated version, or the more modern, stone-heated version. In both cases, enjoy the view while you sweat your heart out, before taking a dip in the outdoor pool. Kuuma also boasts an excellent restaurant serving Nordic cuisine with a European twist, all with a lovely terrace and a magnificent view over Tampere. We highly recommend it!
