Lonely Planet review

This block of old town houses forms another of Kuopio's delightful museums. It consists of several homes - all with period furniture and décor. It's very detailed and thorough; the level of information on the laminated sheets (in English) is particularly excellent. Apteekkimuseo in building 11 contains old pharmacy paraphernalia, while in another building it's fascinating to compare photos of Kuopio from different decades.

There is also a pleasant museum café, where you can have coffee and taste the delicious rahkapiirakka (a local sweet pastry).
