About the museum
The Tyrvännön järvikalastusmuseo is the former Tyrvännön kotiseutumuseo (Tyrvännö local heritage museum), now specialising in presenting the fishing of Häme and especially of the people of Tyrväntö. The museum is run by Tyrväntö-Seura. It operates in an old loan-grain storehouse on Tyrvännöntie.
The exhibition explores fishing and crayfishing techniques and history. Fishing was an important livelihood on Lake Vanajavesi for centuries, and today recreational fishing is a hobby for many. The museum also has an exhibition that changes every year.
