Tour de Road 25: Billnäs & Fiskars Ironworks







On day #2 of this trip, it was - alas - already time to start heading home. I took yet another small detour (roads 104/111/186), to visit to very beautiful industrial sites that have some historical value.

These two are among the locations that have great historic importance regarding the development of iron industry in Finland. Especially Fiskars Corporation (founded 1649) is globally known by it's brands (among others): Fiskars, Iittala, Buster, Arabia, Hackman.

Fiskari is very beautiful area in the summer time.
