A city famed for modern architecture hides scars from political feuds and the shock of a library stabbing that shook Finland. Beneath Jyväskylä’s polished surface lies a world of secret struggles, radical performers, and voices that refused to be silenced.

This self-guided audio tour peels back the façades, guiding you through city streets where history’s pulse still echoes. Walk in the shadows of rebellion, scandal, and resilient hope—far beyond what the guidebooks reveal.

Why did a quiet reading room become the stage for sudden violence? What secrets linger in the corners of the storied City Theatre? Who conspired behind the walls of the Workers’ House on stormy nights?

Trace footsteps of agitators and dreamers alike. Every turn brings a new twist, every landmark an untold tale. See Jyväskylä as a city brimming with tension, artistry, and grit.

Unlock the stories that shaped Jyväskylä—your journey into its hidden depths starts now.
