Cloths and accessories related to dressing are on display in the small room dedicated to the people of the Ironworks. In addition, you can use an entertaining game to find out who you are from the history of Fiskars Ironworks. In the final room, the progress of the “Save Pikku-Pässi” -project is presented. The goal of the project is to restore Pikku-Pässi, Finland’s oldest narrow-gauge locomotive, to working order and the narrow-gauge railway inside the Fiskars Ironworks.
