A special place in the depth of "the caves" you find the history of the Moomins mother - the drawings,the stories of the Moomins and the experience the Moomins have. If you can't find the entrence,go to the cafeteria that resides in the building. Outside a wonderful area with a little lake - beautiful even in wintertime. Would have loved if there was a bigger shop and place for kids to play with Moomins.

I didn't really know about Moomin before coming to Finland and this museum was still an awesome experience. I recommend grabbing a book guide so that you can follow the timeline of the books, especially on the underground floor, where things can get confusing. The museum has lights and soundtracks that play when you walk through and it's just a magical experience. I absolutely loved the workshop at the end, it is the perfect final touch to the lovely journey through the history of Moomin.

Lovely museum. Visually appealing to fans of the Moomins and illustrated books/stories. Thoroughly enjoyed the arts and craftwork at the end of the museum. We made these ourselves!

It was pretty unique to see all the figures and scenes from the books come to life in such an interesting style, and getting to hear Tove describe scenes, as well as seeing original sketches of characters. Shame there was no photography allowed. The shop had a pretty good selection too.
