The Home of Quality is not just a slogan but a well-known fact that you’ll undoubtedly soon notice. Our region is home to a dynamic economic life, rich cultural offerings, an international environment and vibrant multilingualism. You’re never too far from nature – the forests, the sea, and the lakes. There are plenty of nature trails, hiking
routes, and places just waiting to be found. You’ll also find an impressive selection of restaurants, cafés, and shopping in Jakobstad. Not to mention the lunch culture, which is something unique. What other small town has over 30 lunch restaurants?
Culture and sports are close to our hearts. We root for FF Jaro’s football players in red and white, hike, ski, do yoga and play badminton. We go to concerts, sing in choirs, do theather and are creative. All this can also be part of your everyday life. We want you to feel at home here and enjoy everything that the region has to offer.
