Tampere. The Sauna Capital of the World

Tampere – The Sauna Capital of the World – welcomes everybody to its cosy warmth! We have over 30 public saunas in the region for anyone to relax in, throughout the year. We indulge in particular those who love hot steam and ice-cold water, as our region offers the most numerous possibilities in Finland to enjoy this addictive combination.

Us Tampereans are known for our authenticity and warmth. The same goes for our sauna culture. In sauna we all are equal – and we have public saunas for every taste.

In Tampere, the only problem for sauna enthusiasts is picking one’s favourite public sauna, as there are so many options. You can choose the soft heat of the oldest public sauna in Finland, Rajaportti sauna, or the atmospheric warmth of the Tampere’s newest public sauna, Hiedanranta communal sauna – and anything from between. Tampere is undoubtedly the Sauna Capital of the World!

Once you make your choice, you’re on your way to relaxation! Bathing in sauna is also much more than relaxation; the health benefits of sauna bathing have been studied scientifically since the 18th century.
