Inkoo, Finland

Inga (in Finnish Inkoo) is a municipality with a vast archipelago in the province of Nyland (Uusimaa) in southern Finland, 60 km west of Helsingfors (Helsinki).

Inkoo combines an open and beautiful landscape with exotic archipelago scenery. Only 500 meters from the marina is Gammelgarden, a charming and historical homestead museum . Buildings have been relocated to this spot from other parts of Finland - the main building from the 18th century displays a rich collection of museum objects dating back to the stone age. With its two recently restored smithies, magnificent park and well preserved museum street, the Fagervik iron works offer a rare insight into the history of iron manufacturing in Finland. The works were founded in 1646 and operated as late as the beginning of the 20th century.
