Mustio Manor is one of the most precious manor houses in Finland with a history of more than two hundred years.
The Manor is situated about 80km west of Helsinki along the Finnish coast, in western Uusimaa in the County of Raseborg in a small village named Svartå in Swedish or Mustio in Finnish.
Today the manor is a museum open to the public, complete with guided tours in many languages. The museum can only be visited with a guide during the guided tours.
The wooden Svartå Manor is nestled in one of the biggest private historical parks in Finland.
The interior is restored to its original state with its different tiled stoves, Gustavian furniture, and original parquet floors.
The Svartå Manor can be visited with our guides, who will describe the history and the interesting personalities connected to Svartå Manor. Our guide can also put focus on special interests like furniture, paintings, family history, or ghost stories and anecdotes.
The tour in the manor takes about 45 minutes and is offered in Finnish. Tours in Swedish, English, German, French, or Russian are arranged by agreement by pre-booking.

The owners do not take out any profit from the business but preserve the historically important area for the public and the coming generations according to Magnus Linder's wishes. Any profit is used to maintain, restore, and develop the area and buildings.
Thus, we want to thank all our guests! By visiting Mustio Manor and using our services you contribute to helping us preserve this important historical cultural heritage for coming generations.
Thank you and we warmly welcome you to Mustio Manor!
