About this experience

Salla Museum of War and Reconstruction is located in the vicinity of the village of Salla at the area of Salla’s former railway station, in the old residences of the railway workers. Museum’s permanent exhibition tells about Kuoloyarvi at the beginning of the 20th century before the wars, the restless wartimes, and the enormous reconstruction work after the war, where the municipality of Salla, tested by the war, struggled to rise once again. In addition to the exhibition spaces, there is a museum shop and café located in the museum building. The museum also has outdoor exhibitions and Salla’s Rajakievari tavern which hosts temporary exhibitions and culture events.
