Pielisjoki Castle, Joensuu, Finland

FI-1597839
Originally designed by architect Ernst B. Lohrmann, Pielisjoki Castle is a protected historical building in the centre of Joensuu. It is a landmark of the city’s cultural and architectural heritage whose interior is also partly protected. The Castle has three storeys with a total interior area of 1 500 m2. The building’s name is derived from its stately location on Niskasaari Island in the middle of the Pielisjoki River. The plot on which it stands has an area of about 3 400 m2. Pielisjoki Castle was acquired by the City of Joensuu in 2003 after being previously state-owned.
