Siuntio Local History Museum
Siuntio Local History Museum

Siuntio Local History Museum (Finnish: Siuntion kotiseutumuseo, Swedish: Sjundeå hembygdsmuseum) is a museum that exhibits the local history and culture of Siuntio in Finland. The museum has been run by a local Swedish-speaking organisation called Hembygdens Vänner I Sjundeå (translates to The Friends of Homeland in Siuntio) since 1965. Siuntio Local History Museum is usually open during summer and during other times by request. Siuntio Local History Museum is located in Siuntio Church Village. The main exhibition is inside an old school building, Fredriksberg school. Apart from the school building, there are also several other old buildings in the museum area, such as two granaries, a shed, a smaller cottage, and a caretaker's residence. The main exhibitions in the Fredriksberg school building showcase items to visitors, ranging from prehistory to modern times in independent Finland. Points of interest include items from the Soviet rental era of Porkkala Naval Base, parts of an 18th-century organ from St. Peter's Church in Siuntio, and dolls from Mona Leo's puppetry. Originally, the museum was located in Fanjunkars croft, which was destroyed after the Second World War during the Soviet rental era of Porkkala Naval Base. During that time, the museum was relocated to Siuntio Church Village. The hill of Krejansberget is situated adjacent to Siuntio Local History Museum, known for Bronze Age burial mounds on top of it. A nature trail leads from the museum area to the top of Krejansberget, offering a panoramic view of the river valley of Siuntio Church Village, Siuntio Church, and Suitia Manor.
