Must-do for tourists, but beware prices
Great place where you will see a lot of cult glass for Finland, but also learn few things about glass making.
Ei ollut mitään syitä inhota&vihata Iittalan lasitehtaan /Lasimäen palveluja ym.koska paikka oli hyvin idyllinen&historiallinen,mielenkiintoisia ja kivoja pikkukauppoja Lasimäellä ja parhaimpia tutustumispaikkoja oli;Iittalan lasitehdas&Iittalan lasi- myymälä :)
Iittala outlet and other shops.
It is a small museum with lots of Iittala glass pieces over the decades and some related items. While the collection can be considered interesting, setup and presentation are very traditional.
Amazing! A museum of Iittala's history with some of the most beautiful pieces of glass I've seen. And you can even go into the actual glassworks to see actual glassware actually being actually made. I love the place!
May be better once summer season gets going .. store was nothing special, signage was mixed (gave hours for exhibits - but door was locked, then found out it was still off-season). Then went over to the actual factory - no tour, just stood and watched the GLASSBLOWING - that was cool! (Actually very WARM! :-)
