Architecture by Alvar Aalto 4: Säynätsalo town hall

The booklets in this series present buildings designed by Alvar Aalto, with introductory texts based either on Alvar Aalto’s own writings or on articles written by architectural experts. The contents are enlivened by photographs and architectural drawings of the buildings then and now. The serie has been published since 1976.

Säynätsalo Town hall was opened in 1952. The building and its use have followed the history of the locality. Originally, the administrative centre of this small municipality contained an extremely varied collection of functions from bank to library, plus a number of homes.
