Life in the archipelago requires many kinds of manual skills THE Pentala Archipelago Museum is located on an old fisherman’s estate on Pentala island in Espoonlahti Bay. With the help of museum guides, you get to explore life in the archipelago and everyday life on the fisherman’s estate as it used to be. “We organise guided tours, lectures, exhibitions and craft workshops, such as net knotting, in the museum area,” says Pentala Archipelago Museum’s guide and coordinator, Ninni Finnberg whose job description includes producing museum services for the public and keeping an eye on the plants in the museum yard. The role of a museum guide on Pentala is very versatile. As well as serving customers, museum guides look after the sheep in the area under Finnberg’s tuition. “The sheep that have a summer job at the Archipelago Museum are very affectionate, and visitors to the museum also get to stroke and cuddle them when their guide takes them to the pasture.” Visitors can enjoy the archipelago nature on the 2.3-kilometre-long nature trail that starts in the museum area and continues from the former fisherman’s estate to lake Pentalanjärvi and the Diksand beach. “When planning a visit to the museum, it’s good to remember that when the Tapiola weather station shows rain in Espoo, it’s often sunny here in the archipelago,” Finnberg says. You can also explore the Archipelago Museum and the history of the Pentala island virtually using the ‘Museum Without Walls’ mobile guide at tarinasoitin.fi/pentala. The Pentala ram is waiting to be let loose on the island for the summer. The Pentala Archipelago Museum will reopen to the public on 6 June. 25
