The Cable Factory Round guided tour takes you deep inside Cable Factory and through the building’s fascinating history, from the early 1900s to the present day.

You’ll here where cable manufacturing began, where the Nokia mobile phone was invented, how commercial radio got its start, and why Jörn Donner considered Cable Factory more important to Helsinki than the opera.

Walk in the footsteps of legends – from Olympic champions and industrialists to heads of state, musicians, visual artists and dance stars.

Come and discover the cultural abundance of Cable Factory!

The Cable Factory Round guided tour lasts about one hour and is available in Finnish, Swedish and English.
