Warum der Umweg sich lohnt
Furniture magnate Matti Pietinen greeted rail passengers with this lavish 1907–1908 apartment and commercial palace, complete with elevators, hot water and a sculpted entrance guarded by stone lions. Its design united work by Bertel Jung, Oscar Bomanson and Armas Lindgren, turning a speculative building opposite the station into a manifesto of Finnish national romanticism.
Pietinen Palace is a hidden gem of Finnish national romanticism, designed by renowned architects and featuring a lavish entrance with stone lions. Built in 1907–1908, it served as an apartment and commercial palace with modern amenities for its time.

Former Viipuri Music Institute and Otso House
Behind this commercial facade, Boris Sirpo's music school grew into one of Finland's most important conservatories and made 1920s–1930s Viipuri a serious rival to Helsinki's concert life. During the Winter War, caretaker Hulda Puustell helped pack more than 10,000 scores into crates; the rescued library eventually followed the evacuated institute to Lahti.
