Strömfors

Getting around: About 45km east of Porvoo near Loviisa; a car is practical.
Hours: Village grounds generally accessible; shops and the museum keep seasonal daytime hours, mostly summer.

Stromfors is a well-preserved historic ironworks village, its 18th-century wooden buildings once housing an active iron mill, now home to artisan shops, galleries and a small museum on that history — quieter and less visited than Porvoo's Old Town.

Works best as part of a broader day trip east of Porvoo toward Loviisa.
