Tower restaurant

Experience the Tower Restaurant’s unique local food concept and spectacular Lakeland views! Constructed in 1963, it was the first rotating restaurant in Scandinavia, allowing diners to enjoy panoramic views of the beautiful Finnish landscape as they eat. Our ideology is that from the tower, you can see as far as the food comes to the plate. The menu at Tower changes according to the season.
