Guided tours

We warmly recommend exploring our museum sites with a guided tour. We offer guided tours focusing on the fascinating history of the museum quarter and the Drake House. At present, guided tours to the Roos House are not available due to the renewal of the permanent exhibition

Guided tours are available on the museum’s opening days (Tue–Sun 11:30–16:00 and Thu 11:30–18:00). Please note that holiday periods may affect tour availability. Tours must be booked at least 10 days prior to your visit using the form below. Pricing information for guided tours can be found in the descriptions below

Pay with credit card or invoice

Please arrive on time to ensure the tour can start as scheduled. We will not extend the allocated time due to late arrival. Guided tours must be cancelled no later than 3 days before the booked date. For later cancellation, you will be charged the full price of the tour. We will also charge the full price, if the group fails to show up (aka the group is a no-show).

  • This guided tour will take you to the museum destinations in the Museum Quarter. The Pedagogy was built as a school building in 1696, and it is presumably the oldest secular wooden building in an urban environment in Finland. The Lassander House was originally built on Kustaa Adolfin katu in 1748 and later moved to the Museum Quarter. The Lassander House gives insight to life in the 18th century in Kokkola.

  • Explore our summer exhibition with a guide!

    The summer season at the K.H. Renlund Museum opens with Kuutti Lavonen, one of Finland’s most beloved contemporary artists. For the first time, a more extensive body of the artist’s work is on display at the museum. Drawing on the richness and refinement of the artistic traditions of France and Italy, Lavonen depicts today’s world and the relationships between people in his art. The exhibition consists of paintings and graphic works from different stages of the acclaimed contemporary artist’s career. It features new works created by Kuutti Lavonen specifically for this exhibition, as well as rarely shown works on loan from various museums and private collections.

  • Explore our summer exhibition with a guide!

    The summer at the Exhibition Hall is filled with the sweet glass sculptures of Paula Pääkkönen. The works in the exhibition sparkle and glow with vibrant colours, creating an irresistibly tempting atmosphere. Beneath their joyful surface, however, the exhibition also offers a commentary on the darker side of contemporary culture. The abundance and visual richness of the works reflect overconsumption and excess – phenomena that have become part of our everyday lives.
