Museum building

The Tampere Art Museum was established in 1931. It was founded by the Tampere Art Society which had already been collecting art and arranging art exhibitions in Tampere since the beginning of the last century.

Since its establishment the museum has been situated in a granary designed by C.L. Engel and completed in 1838 in the area of Amuri. The conversion in 1931 was designed by architect Hilja Gestrin from Tampere. The brick walls, stoves and grain bins were converted into modern exhibition areas and offices. Another major renovation was undertaken in 1982-84, when an underground extension and modern museum technology were added.

Dimensions:
- total volume 7950 m3
- floor area 1629 m2
- wall area 1093 m2
