Jyväskylä Workers' Club
Jyväskylän työväentalo
An early 1925 work by Aalto, a small classicist building with an Italian Renaissance flavour that can be admired from outside.
The Workers' Club is one of Aalto's earliest important works, built in 1924–1925. The columns of the open ground-floor arcade contrast with the enclosed theatre volume above, showing a style rooted in Nordic Classicism. The building is still in use, with a restaurant inside. You can admire it from outside or go into the restaurant to see the interior. It is at the eastern end of the pedestrian street and within walking distance.
