    The best place to enjoy the architecture designed by alvar aalto. Also, a good place to enjoy aalto's furniture. The owner was really kind and even came over to open the door for us to visit, even though the town hall was closed on the weekend.

Neighbourhood information

Säynätsalo Town Hall, designed by Alvar Aalto, represents Aalto's architecture at its best. The municipality of Säynätsalo held a contest in 1949 and the town hall was finished in December 1951. The town hall started a new era in the productions of Alvar Aalto, of which the most significant mark was the use of the red brick. Säynätsalo town hall is an internationally renowned monument in modern architectural history. On account of its architectural significance, the town hall's courtyard grouping was protected by a building preservation law 3 § 2 on 301 of May 1994. Säynätsalo municipality had become part of the city of Jyväskylä in 1993, which also meant that town hall now belonged to the city of Jyväskylä. Säynätsalo town hall is a building with many functions. The local council and library work there. The building also includes residential spaces, business rooms, and guest rooms. The main factor describing the building is the courtyard patio. Aalto meant a place for people to hang around, a piazza. Aalto designed the town hall as a whole piece of artwork, which can be seen in small details and in furniture designed specifically for the building.
