Architecture and design, cultural history from Central Finland, fascinating art exhibitions and various craft phenomena - welcome to Jyväskylä's museums and galleries!

Aalto2 is the new dimension of the Museum of Central Finland and the Alvar Aalto Museum in Jyväskylä, Finland. The Alvar Aalto Museum is responsible for Alvar Aalto’s architecture and design legacy and the The Museum of Central Finland, more familiarly known as KeMu, cherishes the cultural heritage of Central Finland. Together both museums reach further and closer in exploring their shared love — milieus of life.
