Nuutajärven lasikylän tarina
Väinö Linna gave life to the inhabitants and the story of Pentinkulma. When the Urjala-born author decided to bring his readers to Urjala, the landscape of the Under the North Star trilogy, the Väinö Linna tour was established. The tradition still lives on today.
– The guided Väinö Linna tour is for everyone interested in history and literature and for those who want to experience a memorable tour of the locations depicted in the Finnish classic, says Marja-Riitta Touru who works as a guide.
It is a bus tour which starts from the library where you can see the study of Väinö Linna. Stops along the way also include Ittellisen pirtti and Koskela torppa. You can also go through the route independently with a guide booklet, and later in the autumn there will also be a mobile guide. According to Touru, various groups take part in the tour: many associations and literary circles, but also groups of friends, children and adolescents.
Touru gives a few tips and recommends visiting Ittellisen pirtti and Koskela independently as they are close to each other.
– The location of the birth home is also great. The landscape by the cliff gives an idea of what Väinö Linna's living environment was like in his early years. The church and the cemetery are also worth a visit, Touru explains.
