Joensuun Taidemuseo Onni, North Karelia, Finland
4.5 (24 reviews) Spent Ranking #4 in Joensuu Art Museums
Enjoyable visit
This museum is located in the center of Joensuu, near the market square. The stunning Neo-Renaissance building is the former Joensuu Lyceum completed in 1894. Permanent exhibitions include Finnish art from the 1850s to the modern days. You can find works from the most famous Finnish artists from the Golden Age of Finnish art. The exhibitions also include Eastern Orthodox icons, Chinese art, Greek and Roman antiquities, and European church art. On our visit, the changing exhibition was a contemporary exhibition by the anonymous graffiti artist EGS and textile artist Niina Mantsinen. It was a quite different art experience. The museum has a suitable size. You don't get an overdose of art.
